I love to see them cry when they walk the plank. I love to hang them high and watch their little feet try to walk in the air while their faces tangle. Just kidding. As usual, we're gonna start right here at the beginning because if we start at the end, it's gonna be too short. Oh, I'm coming to you under wings of light. Just saw into the airwaves, gliding into your radio speakers with the finesse of eruption yachts. Just love that word. You got the Wolfman Jack Graffini Gold Show, the program that provides the contemporary person with a gible education. Yes. At the river line. Had we gone in there, it wouldn't have been the nice cakewalk and they always yap about how boy war is really stupid, because these guys never fired a shot this or they did that. That's always punks after the fact yapping about stuff. The bottom line is, is they understood that it would have been more expensive and the war wouldn't have been as popular. That's why they put the brakes on it. Plus, if they'd captured anything more, they would have been fighting American equipment with all kinds of American documents back in the early 90s. Because they had a cool propaganda line there with an absolute blatant line. Anyway, we're at the top here. Defense in depth, guys. It means having a deep larder. Also, spare weapons. Doesn't mean it was what it is, but you all need to know how to use different weapons because of what you'll be taking from the enemy. The confiscation of iron from your aggressor means you need to know how to use the FP-5, the PS-90, cross rifle, whatever. Anyway, we're going to the top. God bless the Republic. We shall prevail, ladies and gentlemen. The Empire is on the run. But we're on the run. Coming up next, don't you touch that dial. More live radio right here on Liberty's new radio. We'll be back at 8 o'clock. Down to myself, evening in, don't report. Thank you guys. Bye-bye. Liberty's Guardian. Guns and ammunition. A family-owned business located in the heart of Ohio's hunting country. Let us help you find the right shotgun or rifle. A figure walked him through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat and speaking low to me he said, We've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave. In this the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught. According to the state, you read about the current news in a regulated press, and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shit. You trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for what you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land, preserve our great Republic and each God given right, and pray to God, to get the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke he'd vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each god given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Here we go three times and it still didn't want to register. Okay. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is the first hour of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Mark Carkey. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories. West, south, north. Ladies and gentlemen, you are listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com, libertytreeradio.org. And we're on satellite technology. We'll see how all our merchant marine operators, no matter where you are on the planet or which ocean and or inland sea, we're on a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside the United States. And it is Wednesday, it's weapons Wednesday. It is the 21st of June. It is the 15th year of open obvious and in your face Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist occupation of America with a K 2023 old earth calendar 2023 battle for the Republic the dance of swords let the dance continue First of all, a few technical difficulties it had to deal with before we could get up on the air. They've been taken care of, but it did require physical and mechanical work on his part as far as, you know, it couldn't just automatically hit a switch and it go. He had to improvise, that's overcome, but well, actually just follow the normal procedures, but individual tasks had to be accomplished. So did a great job. We're up. Could have taken longer. They didn't. Conveniently always just before we start the program of course it happens and it's one of those things where well we'll live with it and roll with the punches so Weapons Wednesday a couple things real quick. Oh, oh I gotta say this I can't I'm not gonna say more on this the video and audio tapes of the shitmer slash the governor the cross-dressing male governor of Michigan You know Whitmer. Oh, I mean Gretchen. Whatever that other name is that he's using you know Gretchen Whitmer anyway the Democratic Party has been sharing the meetings with the communist Chinese and The party has got a real good idea who's lying their ass off in fact interestingly enough the Kennedy Democrats reach across the table with a couple of I guess I don't know if it's memory stick or see or DVDs but That and some really they caught some of the perverted stuff that the lesbian pack is doing in Lansing Like I said, they're under a microscope to being followed watch constantly. It's tank team They don't have that's how many people are in both parties, but they've got him dead to rights They absolutely have them dead to rights. They're just now trying to formulate what they're going to serve them with and it's going to hit hard. But the conversations with the communist Chinese, everybody that's in the opposition element of the Democratic Party has the ammunition now and there's more. This is just like, you know, it's kind of like the precursor, but there is a ton. of stuff both, you know, they were watching them before, but then once certain things occurred, everybody kicked in the, you know, the next lens on the microscope and the videos, some of it's disgusting. I mean, like the queers, the petal queers, the satanic petal queers. Oh, dudes, your tax dollars are paying for some really twilight zone fruit loop nutcase queers, a $3 bill of petal sataness, I'm telling you. I've only seen a fingernail scratch of what they've already got. And again, there's meetings going on all over the state. I think there's one down towards Monroe tonight. Another one over at Lake. They're up in the Upper Peninsula. They're over in the Waters area right now. I think they're, well, actually, it's everywhere, but they're bringing groups together. And the Democrats, the Kennedy Democrats, are ready to oust this governor. In fact, the word trees and applies. And of course, there's a whole click. There's a whole wave of sycophants that came in with the violation of the election process that they did the last time. And that in and of itself has got a bunch of other attention going on where they've been going through the election technologies here in Michigan. They have five different incidents where they can definitely demonstrate it right back to the Attorney General's office and the Secretary of State, etc., as far as who was manipulating what. And that is already, you know, being, well, they're nodding all the eyes and crossing all cheeses, put it that way. Enough said on that because it's, this is one of those things where you heard it somewhere a lot earlier than anywhere else. Kind of like when I told you, don't go to Washington on January 6th. But, of course, people have to make their own decisions. In this case, beware, because the bad guys are gonna knee jerk. There's already all kinds of, you know, toilet zone stuff going on, as we expected. Nothing that's a surprise. Nothing that's panicking us as a matter of fact. It's like yawn. I've seen this all before. Nowhere this is headed. Now, it's interesting. I'll try it. The Ed's got enough on his plate right now. We're not going to worry about it. And I have to pull a video title up anyway, so I don't have it right here on my fingertips at this workstation. But let me remind you guys of something. This is Weapons Wednesday. The Hautari case. Now... Every two years, the skank feds have to stir the pot somewhere with an anti-gun, anti-malicious, anti-patriot attack somewhere, okay? Before the Houtari case, as we pointed out, you can find all of the articles, including the controlled media, where the patriots won, it was in Pennsylvania, they attacked a bunch of guys, it's the same old lies, they repeat them, they just systematically repeat them every so often. And they got caught flat-footed in that one. Everybody won except for the poor fool who was stupid enough to think he was making a deal. He didn't make a deal. He basically cut his own tendons and everybody else won their court case. That was the Pennsylvania one. Then the Houtari case, same scenario. But what's interesting in each one, the Pennsylvania case, it was a Fed. Now there was FBI and bat faggots always involved. They just cross-dressed. It's like any other queer. their cross dressers. So what's fascinating about this is that they had one of the agents in the Pennsylvania case who was pissed at one of the other agents and they were involved in a sex scandal ring in which they were doing wife swapping and stuff like that. And one of the wives did not want to participate so the, now this is going to sound familiar as soon as you listen to the rest of these stories. But what's interesting is the husband got pissed because the wife wouldn't cooperate in the whatever it is he was thinking they were going to do over at the party with the rest of the ATF and FBI agents. So he beat the living snot out of his wife and strangled her and put a gun to her head and said he was going to kill her. Which by the way, this is after they got home. She escaped from the house, does this sound familiar? And eventually the local police had to respond. They didn't have any choice. She was beat up. She had muscle marks to the side of the head, re-poking her with the pistol he had. And so that progressively became a downhill, oh shit, situation for that poor fool. Now let's slide forward to the Houtari case two years later, okay? Same scenario same kind of BS all lies Fabrications the Fed and by the way anybody who is getting pay or a monument you call them a Fed well They're confidential for it now. They're their Fed wannabes of their feds So anyway the Fed that was involved with that one who was lying his ass off. He was a crackhead a drunk He was it had more than one or two addictions. Actually. We don't know what all drugs. He actually was on but what's interesting about this is Just before the trial, he tried to kill his wife by shooting at her, shooting her right out of the house. She realized he was pissed because apparently they were fighting over the drugs that they were maybe both on. I don't know, maybe she was pissed at him with the drugs he was doing. He did something that pissed him off internally and he grabbed his pistol and he was firing. She realized, uh-oh, he's going for the gun. So she turned and ran and he shot at her all the way out of the house. And she escaped to the police and the police came in and they had to bust his RERs for that. Of course, the feds did everything to lie their ass off about this with the, you know, because the court case was coming up and this was their star, one of their stars. Well, what's interesting is, okay, the trial starts and somehow the wife was talked into going back to the house or being in the house with the Fruit Loop, with the Fed. And another pissing match began, but this time he figured he's going to be quieter, so he pulled out a knife and he tries to stab her. Apparently he did poke her a few times. Okay, he got her tagged her a few times. She ran from the house while he was chasing her, slicing at air. And she ran out of the house. He didn't know where she went, so he waited. Now he's panicked. Now this is during the Huttari trial. And so he realizes, oh, I got to cover my ass because this is the second time. So he takes the knife and stabs himself. The Fed stabs himself. Then the Fed calls the cops and goes, my crazy wife attacked me and she stabbed me. Here's the problem. When the wife left the house, she went right to the police. The police had her in safe custody, protective custody, because obviously there was a death threat. So she's sitting in the police station. He called about an hour after the incident, a little less, but about an hour. And it turns out that the wife is in the police station sitting next to the cops. When he calls in, he goes, this is this. And my wife, you know, Schmidlaper, she Oh my god, when did she do this, sir? Oh, just a few minutes ago. She just stabbed me a few minutes ago and she left the house. I don't know where she is. She could be somewhere in the house. And so, the problem they had is, of course, they got that all in dispatch, right? It would be great if you put her on the phone. Right, right. Oh, I don't know, because they want to speak. Would you like to speak to her? She's right here. No, they want him to stay right where he was. Oh, we're going to come and help you, sir, right now. And so they picked him up the second time, carried his ass away. This time, of course, they couldn't ignore the multiple drug issues because there were drugs that were out. There were drugs found the first time, but the feds covered that. Second time around, there were drugs and they couldn't cover it, okay? So they had to do, they tried to do whatever damage control needless to say, as we know, the case went to hell in a hand cart. Now, move forward another two years or so, a little longer actually now, but there's been another case out west in between this. Anyway, we had this one with the guys that supposedly were after Shitmer, slash, that thing was a complete fabrication. We know that. How can you tell when the feds are lying? That's when their mouths are moving. But during the process of this case, I guess it was about the time of the trial, once again, the bat faggot, the chief fed, who was tied into this case, took his wife over to a swap meet and she was supposed to be the pass around pack for the feds. The feds all get together, they cops have to do the same thing so that they can get you on stuff. Okay, they got you on dirty stuff. So he went to this multi-fed FBI ATF wife swap or wife entertainment event. where one wife becomes the boy toy for, well, maybe all of them. And anyway, she decided she wasn't good. She had wanted to be part of this. So he was all embarrassed. Drag her, took her back to the house. And apparently once he got back to the house, he started mopping the floor with her. He beat her and beat her. Now, by the way, he did this. It's really bizarre. He apparently was wearing only his underpants and In the process, he beat her. He, what did he, let's see what else did he do. He really pistol whipped her, but then strangled her, okay? And in the process of however long it took for him to do this, he finally panicked and left the house. He left the house, jumped in the car and went down the road. Now, mind you, he's drunk up on top of everything else, probably got some. in the process with his ATF and FBI buddies at the meetup. And what happened is he's caught in a parking lot. The cops come up on him, they find him, because the wife of course did call the police. And she's all beat to snot. The images of her look pretty bad, okay? However, what's really bad for Mr. Fed, and this is the Fed from the case that just happened here with the Schittmer nonsense, He was in his underpants, covered in blood, and they pulled him over and he goes, what seems to be the problem, officers? I don't see where there's a problem here. Now you're in your underpants, in your car. It's late, late, late at night or wee hours in the morning. You got blood all over you. I don't know, might be a problem. Starship Twilight Zone Satanic Pedo Queer Fed. And this is why, like I said, any fools or idiots that believe that the Fed at this point in time and for that matter for many years they've had a whole click. This is what they do people. This is how they are and this is what kind of fruit loot nutcases gravitate to those jobs. So it heads up on this one actually I was gonna see if I pull up a piece here and I can't do it right now and I don't want Ed to worry about it either. I have to get the proper title for it but we will and I just want to hear what one of the lawyers said about this and actually what was what I transpired through the case. Another thing here real quick and also again I will remind you upset operational security pretty straightforward guys You know are you known? You know is this person known to me if you are? working at building Militia forces you start small you don't try to think I'm gonna bow we're gonna quite an army and I'm gonna be a generalist of all well That's not how it works. You need to start by building fire team squad the unit needs to be copacetic in terms of area of activity. So you want the people to be, you know, again in local guys, local known locations. You get to know or work a background before you start to move people into mechanisms. Always remember that. And that's not hard to do. And no, don't get get rushy about it because while certainly time is short, I'm gonna tell you that right now. There's, you should be getting as much done as you can. But a lot of what needs to be accomplished is not so much final organizational mechanism, but as I've told you a million times, logistics. The logistics aspect, and then of course, well, the nice thing if you have more people is you can actually throw your dollars towards stuff and save money. That is true. You can take your collective dollars make a lot more in the way of taking, you know, acquire more resources that way, which is one of our biggest priorities anyway. We need more material in the larders. We need medical supplies, food. Water is easy. Water you can all do at your discretion. I just did, I just filled up maybe eight more gallons, you know, eight more containers. No, forgive me. I'm going to reverse that. Eight gallons in mixed containers that just went on the shelf. But it caused me. Well, any after the containers out of a safe bump, make sure that they're cleaned. And then they're filled with water and they're water and storage. That's it. Nothing fancy. I love collecting milk cartons. There's tons of them around. You can find people tossing them all the time. They don't need to be pretty for water storage. You still need to be able to stack. And you also want to stack them out of the sunlight. You want to get everything out of the sunlight. Remember that, especially with plastics. If you're going to use plastics, they don't rust, but plastics will break down. Most all newer plastics in certain specific categories, not all, are biodegradable. So you've got to remember that many things have a fixed shelf life, kind of like we were talking about with those rechargeable batteries, which by the way, we're starting to test for those. I've got them all charging right now. Uh, the big thing here is... no, go ahead. 64 ounce plastic juice containers are fabulous for that. They're rectangular shaped, they stock well in a box, and they're, you know, you do have the spout at the top, so it takes up some room, but they will last very, very long time. They are not made of polyethylene like the opaque milk jugs are. Those only last a short amount of time and if you get any creases in them, the milk jugs will tend to leak at the crease point wherever they got creased and dented. The other thing is pretty hard to dent them. You really got to do something significantly bad to them. Also, Gatorade bottles. Before Gatorade gets priced out of the market, you can't get them anymore. Over. Yeah, one of the things there are any of the juice containers if you can't get five cents or ten cents because in many states some of you guys Listening it's like mark I get ten cents a bottle for one of those I pick up and that's true If you look on the labels, it'll tell you what each state pays So I'm not for all the states because not all states have a return But again, if you can get something out of it get the money out of it and the only use the containers for your purposes that They're gonna go to the scrap yard. In fact, not even be reused for plastic, you know that. They're just gonna end up in a landfill. So again, your water storage does not have to be super technology in order for it to work for you. Water is an element. We can purify it, we can repurify it, we can process it in a number of different ways to make things work. The big thing is you need it. Gotta have it on the shelf. We're in the middle of Michigan summer right now and every time this happens everybody always starts talking about how well dry it gets. Well I would point out this is why you water cash no matter what state you're in. Water cashes having water cashed with ammunition, equipment, and whatever. The water can be, it must be separate from all of that, should be. But water is always cached with whatever you have, potable drinking water that you can use to refresh. And it's especially critical that you have lots of it. And also water filtration systems. And if you can, once you've got things built up to a certain degree, remember you can use bleach, peroxide, iodine. Any one of those three can be used. A drop for, well, two gosh for a gallon at the most, and some less. If the water is relatively decent, each one's going to change the flavor, so to speak, but that's going to eradicate a big chunk of the issues you're going to have with what might be unknown contamination. Filtering system is your best choice. Filter straws, burkeys, whatever. Now, I don't know too many people are going to be burying a burkey. with everything else. But you can get drinking straws, you can transport, you get out to the cache or one of your caches, you pull everything out of there. You got a drinking straw, you're able to continue to move. Remember, keep moving, you're a shark. But the big thing is having the material in hand and water right now isn't really a cost. So it's a matter of just motivation on your part. Every time I hear somebody say, well, I can't do anything. Well, what can you do that's free? That you know you're already pay for it for that matter if you had I got to pay for the water out of my tent Well, then go someplace else where you can get water for free and every time you go fill up a car Here's with cute. I am like this go to the tractor supply You take two or three empty, you know get yourself a satchel put two three or four empty You know 20 ounce pop bottles or 20 ounce Gatorade bottles or 20 ounce whatever cheap bottles Get back to the back fill them up to the drinking fountain. They're paying for the water By the way, it's probably treated, which means there's nothing you really need to do to it. It's just going to have those. It's been filtered and it's, you know, by the, by the city probably has a filter on the drinking fountain. And on top of that, it's been chlorinated or whatever. Now some of that states use peroxide, which is cool. So whichever way it was treated by the city, if it's well water, that's fine. Either way, the idea is that you don't tell me you can't figure out ways. It's only because you're what, not motivated. You can also research quaternary disinfectant. There are purist types of quaternary disinfectant. A lot of water treatment facilities will use that instead of chlorine. Also, with regard to the idea of I'm getting five or ten cents for that half-calon juice container, Gee, if you got a hundred of them at five cents each, You paid five bucks for 50 gallons of water storage. I don't think you could beat that anywhere else. Especially since those collapsible five gallon containers cost you more than five bucks. Same thing with 10 cents. So it cost you $10 to put aside 50 gallons worth of water. I'd say that's a fair trade. Over. I killed him. I guess he didn't like that. Oh, there we go. There we go. I don't know what happened there. Just moved a little bit. Anyway, yeah, the big thing here again is the water. There's a big pallet type. Yeah, I've got it. We'll store a bunch of water there. But if anything passes through that, now plastic is kind of semi-self-sealing, but not very much. It will not leak as fast, but it will still be losing water, and you've got however many gallons you're going to lose based upon where the bullet hole is in a big reservoir. So, having smaller containers distributed in many locations in addition to those big reservoirs is a really good idea. Another cool thing is we're on the move. What do you got coming in? I got a 10 man squad. Okay, what are they going to do? They're going to take care of your back 40. They're going to deploy there. How are they set? Well, they're light. Okay, so what first thing I know they're going out in the backfield. What's the temperature outside? Well, it's in the it's a little under 90 degrees right now. So when they hit the road, when they get off the vehicles and they hit the back door here, first thing I want everybody to do is drink. Drink as much water, grab one or two quarts of water, drink it. By the way, see these water bottles are already filled. Everybody take two. Water is life. And guys, just because you think, well, I'll be able to get back here to the water, really? If you're pinned down, you're stuck, you're in a fighting situation. We're deployed, and we actually have also say we're the anvil and the hammer still hasn't caught up. If you're in the defensive mode in the response team, You may be there for a while. Now this is why I also argue for being heavy as a minuteman. What I mean by heavy is all the stuff you think you're going to use, ammunition, magazines, pyrotechnics, foodstuffs, don't need to be a lot. I would remind you again, food tabs. You can go over to... Major Surplus and they have food tabs anywhere from three to five different flavors at any given time Now what are food tabs? Well, they were designed for during Vietnam era, but they're also actually they argue they were different design for the space program They were literally food like tablets about the size of a small candy and You eat so many of them to take in the same nutrients minerals, you know minerals vitamins and calories as if you were eating an MRE or a C ration. C rations were the thing back in the day, so it would be a C ration counterpart. The advantage of these is that one of the containers fits perfectly into a standard two-quart canteen. It was designed that way to fit into a canteen carrier. It'll fit just fine into one of the Molly canteen carriages. And by the way, you still got some room with those. You can stuff other things in there, like other food items. But the big thing here again is that food tabs nothing exciting But you got water and as long as you got water your body will process what you what you've got We if you have the food tabs with you another thing or high Concentration energy bars and whatever flavor you choose. They go to the grocery store. There's aisles of them There's a whole aisle any grocery store has actually in to them here locally have almost half and a full aisle left and right of energy bars of health bars So take your pick. Whatever you choose, all of it will work. You figure out what you like because you can do beef jerky, you can even do just certain select MREs, but you want some food stuff of some kind packed with it that's the highest concentration for the least amount of space and weight. That way everything else is going to be ammo, mags, of course medical gear. You're going to have to have your medical support on board. You're going to be carrying a gas mask, all this stuff, and it's hot out. Now remember the first rule, pre-hydrate. I would even go so far as to say is if you're loading up and you get ready to take off, it should be the team leader's squad leader's mission to make sure everybody drinks before we leave. But they'll have to piss later. Well pissing is not a problem. You will figure it out a way to do that. But trying to grab water out of thin air doesn't work. And if you pre-hydrate, as we've talked about many, many, many, many times on this program, you're not going to get caught flat-footed and starting to get parched almost as quickly as you deploy. But here's the thing. It's something that the team leader should already have in the math formula. It's something that this is why you have NCOs and officers, to make sure that the logistic train with perishables or consumables is met. where the troops need it. That has to happen and that includes pre-action. We get into a combat situation, water is life. You wonder who's gonna win? Person who figures that out. Period. I don't care what anybody says. You're gonna need kind of protracted action. Look at the weather out there right now. You also need to consider ventilation, breathing, all the other fun stuff with hot weather, just like you do with extreme cold weather. And you know what's weird about that? Both you have the same problems. So again, sustainment is the big thing. Being able to maintain and water supply is one of them. But the big thing here again is with logistics, you can pick one item. One of our friends might be listening right now to put his two year food supply on the shelf. You know what he did? He bought a pallet and a half, almost two pallets of Asian round ball rice. And he bought a full pallet that was just below my chin. of mackerel, canned mackerel. Now his wife is Asian and she cooks like she is a master chef. Oh God. In fact, even thinking about what she has put together in the past for meals, it's like, oh. So you know what, just that if you just have the rice and you got that mackerel with all the things that she can do with the spices and everything else that she has, it's part of the larder, you can pretty well eat like a king. So just something to think about there doesn't have to be complicated most important is that right off the bat put him on the Table to fight on the paint table to prep and where everything's there boom doesn't have to be Martin big tower tree still has Dollar Tree still has those 10 ounce cans of mackerel for a buck buck and a quarter Yeah, and they're not a bad deal the Your needs for the day are like four ounces of protein so You can even probably split that with somebody else and still maintain the majority of what you need protein wise. Over. There's one of the tricks on that real quick. We've talked about, and again, food is a weapon. Okay. So that's what we're talking about, Food on Weapons Wednesday. We're talking about this because the weapons platform, you, if you're not shaking, quaking, or, you know, men that working with parched lips and your tongue is swelling for lack of water, then you're probably going to fight better, right? Okay. So one of the tricks here, first of all, I know this is, most people consider this overage, but it's not because at least one person should get like this. I have a standard old US military mess kit. I have a standard canteen cup. And then I typically also carry one of the German Mezkits, which it's hard to find those now. In fact, let's put it this way. Everybody liked them, sure. But now you're basically finding communist Chinese copies that try to look like the German ones or the Belgian ones or the, you know, you see how that works? It's like the shovels. They're making all copies of all the military shovels now, the Chinese are, of every old pattern. So, again, if you can find a real one, they're great, but what do I got there? That's a complete field kitchen. That's everything you need. You can use that mess kit like a Dutch oven, so, Darjeous Men's in the Mackerel. Here's the thing, you got a can of Macquarie. Open it up. Take your mess kit, grab a ramen noodle. They're cheap and easy and free almost. Well, they're not as cheap as they used to be, if you look at the price. But you can get a better price if you buy quantity So you open up the pack, lay it in the lower large bowl, lower large tray, pour the juice from the mackerel onto the ramen noodle, add about, oh, maybe six, seven canteen caps full of water. That's about right, but you can cast them, you'll figure this out after a while. Maybe about a quarter inch of water, little more will be fine inside the unit. Then take the spice pack, sprinkle that all over everything. Then take the mackerel, your half of the mackerel, put that on top, spread it out a little bit, and put the lid on, hang on to the handle, and slide her over towards the fire or put your heat source underneath what you put together inside the mesket, start doing other things. Come back in a few minutes, what have you got? You've got rehydrated ramen noodles, the moisture and the juice of the mackerel has sucked into the noodles. Take yourself a couple of hot sauces from our Arby's or from Taco Bell Taco Hell Because those are nice convenient package sizes because they're just just enough that you need Sprinkle that all over you got yourself a meal you're done. You can do an instant rice instead of the ramen noodles but You're eating like a king in the field. That's right there by itself. That's all I need. That's more than I usually prepare. So basically what I just described would be probably my high meal of the day. Everything else is going to be walk food consumption. But there's one meal, just like traditionally throughout time, every society has either one meal that typically is the big meal or like a benchmark meal. Most of Europe uses the lunch and has a lesser meal in the evening. America, we traditionally have a lesser lunch, although we used to, we've always eaten well here. And then the evening meal is the high meal. You figure out what works for you. You guys figured out it as a unit because you want to do it as an SOP. Standard operating procedure, we're going to do one or the other as part of our life cycle. Now that'll change if you're getting your ass shot at because then it's a matter of what can you nibble on while you're busy paying attention to the area in front of you to ensure that you aren't overrun or infiltrated. Alright, so you're gonna have to nibble and watch. That's the first rule, remember, that's why your fast food is especially useful. That's why those meal tabs, those food tabs are especially useful. I can look forward, put one in my mouth, drink a little water while I'm still looking at everything and gulp and wait a little bit. Let that settle for a minute, take a little more water and take another food tab, put it in my mouth, drink, gulp. And meanwhile, I've never stopped looking at what's going on around me or in front of me. See, there's different methods to the madness with regard to your food in the field. Okay? The other is with preparatory time available because you're in a controlled or a limited and lightly controlled or controlled environment. When I say lightly, in other words, you got a moment with a breather and it looks like things are relatively secure because you have friends around. But it's done in cycles because you don't know when you're going to be set upon. Always remember that now anyway couple of things here real quick hold on here Because we are almost to the bottom and I don't know how busy it is right now and he might be a Little busier than you can imagine because we have had a few technical issues that he's having to take care of they're almost to the top on here Oh, we don't have to worry about the bottom of our break We rolled right through that because we did start late for everybody who's wondering yes We did start late about 15 minutes after it could not help that it's just where we were Also, let's see, there was one other thing here. I mentioned, oh, I mentioned majorsurplus.com. Now, first of all, they do have the food tabs there, and Major Surplus may have, and I don't know if they've already outrun it. They had a, I think it was 20% off on their freeze dried food products. There are some Y's, buckets, but those are not all freeze dried. They're cheating on some of those by putting just dried goods in, not freeze dried. But there are a couple of freeze dried packets you might want to take a look at that were reasonably priced. And that is over at majorsurplus.com. I mentioned gas masks. For the life of me, forgive me, we ordered masks from several different locations. I didn't look, I opened them up, I put them all into the same carrier transport box, transport tote, or not even a tote, what am I talking about? It's a duffel bag, but it's a small sports duffel bag. Well, I was going through those two days ago, and I found out that from one of the companies, I mentioned this before, we got a watch for this, One of the companies did not send me a Serbian M1 mask with an M1 filter, with a 60 millimeter filter. Instead, they sent us a Serbian mask, Nokia, as expected, but with a modern, a newer filter, a 40 millimeter filter, with the adapter. So guys, we need to peruse the system because I did not expect it. Now, it's interesting, I do know that in that batch, Three or four of them were the standard M1s, the Serbian M1 which is a finished Nokia mask. But the rest all have the adapter in them and easily seen and they have the 40 millimeter filter. So we want to find this company because I will, we want to direct everybody to get these because for what we paid there was no difference in price between either one. So somebody got a clutch of the adapters and just figured all hell with it since I can't get them the 60 millimeter or didn't want to. Maybe they had a clutch of the clutch, a glut of the 40s. We got the 40s and the adapter. Well guys, the adapter is worth a little bit of change. Go look what the price is right now. Originally only a dollar apiece. Now they're asking six, eight, nine dollars apiece for the adapter. Now those are military. Those are a Canadian and NATO military adapter. The Canadians are the ones who came up with them and others had basically embraced it as they felt they needed to while they were still using the 60 millimeter filter and overlap of the 40s. So this is something we want in our kits. We want that 60 millimeter down to 40 adapter first for all of these M1 masks because the M1 masks are in excellent condition. I've got Six of them sitting right here next to me within four feet where I am on standby. Those are already hooked up. Those are set up. And then I've got another clutch of those on the next floor. And it's the same. Each pod's the same. So that way, no matter what, having to figure out what it is you're grabbing and throwing at somebody, it's all the same. Except in this case with one batch, which I haven't opened yet because left and this way they were, got the different filter system. So... Go ahead, Colin. Oh, I'm sorry, Gary. You had mentioned the, uh, the canteen cups. Um, do you have any idea what they're looking to get for the stainless canteen cups? And I'm talking about the ones with the two wings on them. I'm not even talking about the one with the strap that goes over the bottom that you flip on that makes a nice handle. I've got one of those. Um, for the wing style, which I don't, I think is inferior because your hands got to get a lot closer to the fire. They want 45 bucks. Anybody's got any of those stainless cups? Yeah, this is that The Coleman's Coleman's one 45 bucks apiece for those Anybody's got one don't ever let go of it same thing with your entrenching tool Last auction I was at where one of those showed up I stopped bidding at 50 and it went to 75 and I walked away And I don't know what it finally went for but it went for more than 75 bucks over Exactly, in fact, the mess of kids are going the same way. Now here's the thing about the mess of kids, campaigns, and even the shovels, they aren't dated. The bills are back, they're dated, guys. They actually have a long way to go. A figure walked in through the mist with a flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three cornered hat, and speaking low to me, he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you, we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost. You're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money is spent, your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken snumber and you've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seasonally farm. and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children won't be blamed. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedom for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children to live in fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great Republic and eat God-given right. And pray to God, eat the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as pirates trampled, each God given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Gentlemen, this is the... of the afternoon intelligence report. I'm Mark Kearney. One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters, both on and behind the lines in occupied territories, southwest, east, northeast, and ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to us on uw.libertytreeradio.4mg.com. LibertyTreeRadio.org. And we're on satellite. We'll see how all our merchant marine operators out there, no matter what ocean you're on. We're also in a myriad of other communications technologies, both inside and outside these United States. It is Wednesday. It's Weapons Wednesday. It is the 21st of June. It is the 15th year of open, obvious, and in-your-face, baby and socialist and Soviet socialist occupation of America with a K. 2023, Old Earth Calendar. I'm Cuban Olshas, gut captain. And 2023, Battle for the Republic, The Dance of Swords. Let the dance continue. We'll make sure that happens. Before I go any farther, let me grab that cup of coffee with my Father's Day cup here. Smell. Oh yeah. Taste. Peabury Mod. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is the coffee. It is, of course, the coffee for the moment. I'm trying to find more Ethiopian. I do have some left in reserve from our one of our listeners sent me some Ethiopian toenail clipping coffee. And unfortunately, I've been saving it back because until I get a whole bunch more, it's one of those treat things, you know, I just use it, do it on occasion. And I got the Tanzanian Peaberry, pea berry, pea pea pea berry. for a really good price. It's an odd man out. Never seen it before, may never see it again. But we decided we'd try her out. So it's a new station coffee for the moment. In fact, cheap Dollar Tree is the station coffee on a regular basis if you don't know. But every once in a while we find deals. And we appreciate that. So again, thank you to our friends for sending the Ethiopian blend. That of course is the the fine wine reserves for when very good friends come over and then we have we broach the Ethiopian coffee bean bag and we have some long juice So anyway, first of all real quick. Let's see, you know There was a question about some of the rifles that people were seeing with the troops that are moving around and they noticed something and this is with the you know the the The critical component here is when you observe things is you don't just look at the big thing. Oh my god, there goes an osprey. Oh my god, there goes another osprey. What a couple of pieces of crap. But in fact, well, you know, hey, the osprey is the answer to a question that really didn't need to be asked, but that's okay. It's all very complicated, grossly over complicated. I don't know how you save yourself if you're in flight mode forward. And all of a sudden, I mean, I'm sure they have explosive bolts and some other nonsense they've had to attach to get rid of those big ass rotors if you're going to have to scud in, if you have to try and roll in somehow. Because if you can't get that wing to pivot back up in the vertical, what do you do? You ride her to the wreck? Or maybe just keep driving because as long as you've got fuel, you stay in the air. But as soon as you run out of fuel, Those big-ass rotors they always have a tendency they're mean when they're on top of you in a helicopter Can you imagine if you're in vertical, you know, horizontal flight with a osprey? What happens if you have to go in belly in how would you land? food processor It's exactly what bad enough when they're in hover mode if you've seen any of the videos of hover failures It's just like being a regular helicopter or well, it's more like being in a shit hook a Chinook because the Chinook has forward, you know, front and rear rotor configuration. But all the bugs have been worked out of that. They've flown that for so long, everybody's pretty well got a good idea. But you don't have to completely reconfigure the aircraft to survive. With the Osprey, once you're in a particular mode, or if you're halfway there, and something goes bad, oh, dudes, you're finished. I don't know what the survivability rating is or something like that. It's gotta be low, low, low. So again, it's not just the vehicles. I pointed this out to a couple of people. There's some pictures that were from the downtown imagery. I think it was on the East Coast. And I was looking at some of the pictures. People say, look, they're on the streets. They're all over the country like that. Well, what rifle were they carrying? Well, what's the standard rifle for the US military right now, especially if they're reserve or national guard? What's the standard weapon they should be carrying? What's it gonna be? M4. Yeah, see they're gonna be the M4 and some units still have a limited number but and they always have them in reserve M16A2's but pretty much it's gonna be an M4 with all the heavy junk on it, right? Is that what those troops were carrying? Now everybody goes what? Well, that's the first thing it jumped out of me I want to know what those rifles were because they weren't the new 6.8 gun. So some of those people they caught on the street, I don't think they were American. They weren't Moroccan guys. And the reason I say that is I want you to go start looking through these pictures. Excuse me. And I want you to kind of. Zoom in a little bit, take in that digital picture and expand it and look at the silhouette of the gun. First of all, we don't have a whole lot of, I know the scars are out there with the special forces units of a variety of weapons and always have had, they're always off the cuff. That's a personal preference or flavor of the day bribe to whatever general is operating whatever. They don't really get a choice. If they got a bribe to do whatever, they're gonna get stuck with whatever they get shoved up their hind end or down their throats, okay? But these were SF. These were striker, look like striker units with mixed support. We'll take a look at the rifles. They're not M4s. They're not the new 6.8 gun. Nobody's got those in the reserve regard and even active units. Nobody's seeing those. But they are coyote brown and there are some that were in other colors not not permanent. They weren't like in pomegranate or aqua or anything like that, but they were in other shades. So what were they carrying? They weren't last generation 5.56 guns. I've been watching but I and I guarantee we'll see them. The Berettas are out there. Remember with other foreign military the Beretta 5.56s. There's a number of other HKs. They might be caring. That's not what we were looking at there. So go slow down everything you see and pay attention to the details. Now here's another thing about that. What about camouflage patterns? Now the one thing about that is You know, we got what, three variations on multi-scam now. It's not multi-scam, it's blah, blah, blah. Oh, who gives a squat anymore? They've got so many stupid, you know, the idea is somebody got some other kosher mafia contract, you know, subcontractor to basically build the same garbage they were already building again, but most of it's multi-scam. However, that's not what all those trips are wearing either. Now, they weren't wearing ACU. and they weren't wearing multi-scam, so who were they? Now a lot of the foreign forces do have a variant. Remember, where did multi-scam basically come from? Or, you know, it was a tit for tat thing. British forces, they have the multi-scam uniform down. But other countries have other uniforms and are still using pretty much a lot of what they've had in service for quite some time. So pay attention to the rifles. And then last but not least, the helmets. What helmet were they wearing? Well, that's what I'm wondering because I... No, I mean, where were they seen? Where's the photos? Oh, there's a bow. There's a whole bunch of videos right now. You know a US you know for you know military forces on American streets right now Okay, you'll end up with about you'll end up with about a hundred different videos where people are filming stuff The Ospreys are coming into town one thing you remember about the Osprey is it is a all helicopters are dynamic I mean after all they have to beat the air into submission. They're like bumblebees, okay? But the Osprey is especially abusive to the landing zone far more so than say a Huey or even a Blackhawk. And remember, all of them kick up junk. But the Ospreys are highly focused and aggressive energy thrust. So when they come down into an area, if you might have watched some of these seen in a few videos, maybe you haven't, I've been watching some of the stuff that troops have been putting up. But what's interesting is they're coming into this event and a bunch of people were in the trees, you know, watching the, you know, they figured they'd get a real cool view of the landing area, which was, you know, down-range from them by about 400 yards. Well, the Ospreys came in, not at NOE, but low altitude and literally brushed. I mean, they kicked everybody out of the, off the trees and off the parking lot. and just had to move in every direction. It was like walking behind the wash of a heavy jet. People were just walking around like rag dolls. So one of the problems with the Osprey is the nature of, again, the thrust pattern for the lift system, the way that it works. This was a problem also with the jet. The Hawker, you know, you've got the... The stall aircraft of all types, by the way, just had another F-35 just go down if you didn't see it. The guy was coming in with a vertical landing, had some kind of thrust issue with a Venturi or something, starts to do a pivot on those. He looks like here he feels he's lost control of the aircraft which it looks like obviously he had. So at ground level he ejects and he ejects, he goes out and forward but I've seen this a million times. He comes back to where the aircraft is. Now the aircraft didn't scut in and then just burst into flames. It nosed in hard, collapsed the landing gear, crushed part of the front of the aircraft and stopped. But the pilot was no more than maybe not even Oh, what, 80 yards ahead of the aircraft by the time this parachute brought him back down to Earth. So in other words, if that plane had been on fire, it probably would have sucked him right back into the crash, which we've seen quite a bit with low-level evacuations on runways. We had a real tragic one out there in Tucson years ago, and it's not the only one with a Crusader 2. And the crew ejected perfectly, plane burst into flames on the runway. Both the men, well parachutes took them right back to the wreck. They both landed right in the middle of the fuel and fire and everything and the rescue crews hadn't quite made it out there yet. So just something to take into consideration too. I don't assume, well they're going to be ejected. That may not save you people. Go ahead callers, jump in there please. that went to at least five different locations and grabbed people through them in one of those white vans you were talking about. I got some kind of grainy pictures here, but there they are in their new scorpion pattern camouflage and their mishalmets, you know, grabbing people. I'm assuming it's drugs because we have a huge problem, but I guess I really don't know. Well, it's interesting that we've had a burst of this all over the country at once. Plus, they're going after the gunshots. This is why we need to, everybody needs to articulate if you've seen something like that. So thank you for calling it in. If anybody else, everybody else better be paying attention. The Pickle, Smoke and Mirrors routine is to claim something else and lie about it. I mean, when they come in and they're gonna use the locals, they're gonna baffle them with bullshit and they probably eat that dog vomit unless... They're up to speed and you know who's in the community. Sometimes they can get away with it, sometimes they can't. See, that's why in most of these instances everybody has said the same thing here in the last week. Well actually the Georgia incident was two weeks ago almost now. Today is Wednesday. And the local sheriff was not called. The attack on the FFL in Montana again, the local sheriff was not called they found some idiot whores in some local you know Fed wannabe cop shop with a bunch of punks who probably thought oh boy They like me they're gonna give me FBI hat with Bangladesh on the inside of it cost him 99 cents is FBI a little bit of an angle because they had it printed in Bangladesh and it's not quite centered That's the kind of garbage they do I don't know what the sheriff would have called here. Well, you know what? We could ask. You know, hey, there's a bunch of stuff going on. Usually they put out a presser if they're involved. So every now and then we have, even though we're in the center of Ohio, we'll have Border Patrol come and round up illegals and the sheriff's is usually there and puts out a press release right after it's happened. And this is just... Like civilian vehicles like a small Ford red pickup and the white van and everything and all of a sudden the lights Looks like they switched the lights on and jumped out and just grabbed people so I don't see any local or sheriff's office there Thank you for bringing something up. I have to reemphasize again guys You do not figure it's gonna be like television where all the vehicles are gonna be perfectly aligned and matching The bad guys the regime knows that people are actually conditioned and looking for that So what you have, I mean, what's the last thing you expect? Well, it gets a red truck. Well, that's pretty kind of flashy. Why would they be using a red truck? Well, everybody, it's the last thing you really would think. Not a red truck, guy probably passing through the neighborhood. Oh, wait a minute, there's a white SUV. There, oh no, that's a van. Okay, but wait a minute. And you know, vans are always suspect to me now anyway, because it's the utility vehicle we've used for years. We make APCs out of them. And vans are, you know, the new vans are crap, I will say that. We're trying to grab all the older vans we can. But any old van we find that isn't a rust bucket, we convert and put it on the shelf. Because they can be made up pretty quick to be a good, fast deployment vehicle. Just something to just a heads up. But, you know, using a hodgepodge of vehicles, That's something that has been the norm for quite some time and we need to remind everybody just pay attention. Remember, unfuzz your brain. I should say, fuzz your brain a little bit when you're observing. Look more for pattern than for type initially. Like, is there something strange here right now? Well, wait a minute, I got three or four vehicles that are all in the block here. Nobody, I don't recognize any of them, but they're all different. Well, of course they are, but if you'll notice, They'll all be vehicles that are at least utility useful. And that doesn't mean they have to be like the Edison truck or anything like that. But they have to be quick access, in and out. Yeah, they can use sedans, they do. But sedans are not as convenient and in the beginning smaller. And even SUVs are becoming pretty crappy unless you buy a full-size one. And there, now they're going the other extreme where they're getting kind of bulky on the outside, but you're not gaining anything on the inside. So that's the I've been thinking about this today, you know, just looking at the vehicles that are out here and most cop shops to save gas money are buying lesser vehicles right now most of our fleet is One and a half times heavier per vehicle than what the other side is driving We actually have a greater throw weight on the road just when we generally drive as opposed to what the other side's using You know the police state And it's getting worse for them because none of the newer vehicles are being built to what would be considered sturdy spec. And so they're actually because they have to, because typically in the contract or its policy, the departments will buy new vehicles every two years. And when they're doing that, there actually have been, they've been, with the exception of small departments where they really can't afford to, you know, throw everything away right away, unless they get federal tit money. If they get federal grant tit money, all they go ape-crazy. Then they get stupid. But right now, the average suburban Tahoe explorer pickup trucks were running, first of all, their steel frame. Also, they're better, easier and better to modify for that reason because they can handle the weight and it doesn't create other issues. The newer vehicles are aluminum and they're starting to go to, back to, well, rather than just keeping a frame under the vehicle, they're starting to do the integrated unibody, you know, interbody, where you have a partial unibody component and then a frame. Which makes the vehicle even weaker great for crush. Okay, if you have an accident but bad for a tactical vehicle very bad actually So we're we're upgrading by simply freezing our policies of what we acquire and if you got an older vehicle Well hell they're heavier still if you were driving anything that's an old hand me down from the 70s or 80s You're at twice the weight of your enemy's counterpart vehicle and that's something you should be thinking about like I said if you're gonna get tactical trucks or whatever together watch for those $600 or $800 old pickup trucks and old vans and Suburbans because they are heavier and it's not hard to arm them up good colors up in there Yes, that's my yeah, hey, don't forget the Ford and Ford utility vehicles. They're actually making the bodies out of aluminum Yeah, yeah, they're lightening everything up, but you know what gets me about that is why? You know what? I'm gonna say something this is the year 2023 Very few of our vehicles are getting any better gas mileage than we got 35 or 40 years ago They may they get a little better highway a little better which could have been done without most of the gimmick they've done But why do I need to light them up more? I mean, I know what part of the thing is is that the aluminum is probably coming from some foreign scat operation out of Southeast Asia run by the communist Chinese The other problem we've got is our steel foundries have been damaged by the internationalists quite quite heavily put out of business and So, the steel industry, they want to kill it the rest of the way in America in their preparation for the war against us. And I believe that that is the policy across the board. One of the ways to maintain those industries is production. Now, here's the other thing. Aluminum is not cheaper. Anybody priced aluminum recently? Anybody scrapped aluminum recently? They're not saving a penny. They're in fact, in fact, as far as cost goes, They're taking the hit. They probably, the way they're taking the hit on the aluminum is you're paying for it. Not by buying the vehicle. I'm talking about, I'll guarantee our tax dollars with some tit-sucking operation that the parasites behind the scenes did in manufacturing code have got buckets of money that they can argue they have to spend on the aluminum. In reality, it would be a lot less. But they get to pocket the profit difference, which is what's going to happen. The big thing here again, if, well, let me remind everybody, why are we talking vans, Suburbans, SUVs, you know, whatever? Well, they're easy to arm up. Not, and the first thing is arm the back. If you got a pickup truck, guys, you can move the back seat, move it out of the way or take it right out and install laminate armor in the back below the back window. You got plenty of space. There are some really neat designs using a combination of sheet metal. You can use a number of different construction cloth or fiberglass layer combined with ceramic tile. I think that's really the best choice. But if you can get Kevlar panels, which they are out there, as I've said, scrap, there are companies that cut Kevlar every day. I know, I bought thousands and, well, no, correct that, Mark. millions of dollars worth of Kevlar panels for installations at the U of M. It was millions. I could not believe how much they spent just on that particular material. But the fact is that if you pick up any of that, it's bullet positive. In other words, it does a good job, even up to .308. Go ahead, call your jump in there. I think it's Shelby. Go ahead. Yeah, go ahead. You're talking about the armor. I mean, people can build their own by the YouTubing fiberglass body armor. And you can use fiberglass welding blankets and fiberglass resin. We layer them together and you can make panels shape and size and you can cut them with a band and use those to make wide armor. I wouldn't say it would stop rifle armor, but rifle bullets, but... At least it's a low velocity or bullet, so give you some sort of protection. Well, that's where, again, some of the designs which I've seen are actually pretty cool. They're using ceramic tile, part of the laminate. You go with a certain amount of the construction cloth, fiber cloth. And then you go with the ceramic and then you go with the fiber cloth and then I'd still put an impact panel with sheet metal beyond that inside. Now, like you said, that unit by itself is not going to stop everything, but I wouldn't stop there anyway. Number one on the hit list for things to do to a pickup truck, guys, look at the box of your truck. See where that back wall is? It goes right up to the right behind your cab, that panel area right there. Go to a steel cutter, make you a 3-16 piece of steel or a 1-1-1 inch piece of steel. It didn't have to be anything fancy and it doesn't have to be armor. But you have them cut that and you bolt that right into the back of your box. Now if somebody asks you, oh that's a bump guard, I haul steel and metal and stuff and I've had people hit me and I had to go right through the cab. So I gotta have that. That's a safety precaution. You can even just get regular old diamond aluminum or diamond steel, diamond plate. It's not nothing fancy. You can get a different thickness as I get it thickest you can afford and have the guys cut it to the dimension to fit right in there snug into that box against the wall. What does that do? That's your next tier of armor. Now with the pickup truck, as I've said many times, what else am I going to do? Well, I'm going to go back to the tailgate. I'm going to have to cut me a piece of steel that is going to be about an eighth of an inch thick, maybe thicker if you're willing to do that. But remember, your tailgate hangers can only handle so much weight. So what you want to do is put a shock plate there. Well, what'd you do that for? Well, I'm always hauling crap and I drag it across the gate and you know what? I've messed three gates up. You guys have the story ready in advance. So what I did is I put this plate down, paint the hell out of it, okay? And now you put that plate up with that gate, what do you got? You got a steel panel, you got the sheet metal of the vehicle which isn't much. You've got the first steel plate, then you impact against the other steel plate, then you still got the ballistic panel you built on the inside. That's a lot of junk. And then you can still be wearing body armor, but let's go one step farther. Do what Uncle Mark said. Take your, grab the, either make it yourself. Make panels for the back of your seat. And bolt those suckers or make hangers so you can tie them in like a car cover. But put them right behind and all along the back seat. You can do that with the back seat and the front seat. Now that is always gonna protect you from most commonly, which is gonna be trace rounds coming at your ass while you're trying to leave something. And cops and secret police are always trained to shoot for the driver's station and the rider's station. Doesn't make an difference if you're just riding along. They plan on killing all of you. So you should put armor behind the rider and the driver's seats just to be, again, that much safer. Plus you're still carrying your own personal body armor. Your door panels are not hard. You do the same thing like Shelby is saying. Make up your own panels. Take off your inners. I just did this with a vehicle last week. Take it off. What I did is I went inside, cleaned off, and washed everything off on the inside of the doors, both sides, on the front driver and rider doors, not the backs yet. And then what I did is after I cleaned it, I undercoated everything on the inside. I put a new undercoat cover from top to bottom. against the outer panel wall. Now the window is up. Now I'm using mechanical windows as in crank, hand crank, not electric. But it really doesn't make a difference either way because the door operates the same way. Just got a little extra junk there hanging around all the time. Once you've got that in place, like I told you before, I have tons of this stuff in Footlockers. They're cut body armor that I bought years ago. And what I did is I laid that dragon scale inside the door and it's secured with a tag up above and hangs. and overlaps down to the bottom of the door. Is that gonna stop everything? No, but what does help is that the next thing you do is take that eighth inch piece of steel, you'll have to make two, because you can't wiggle them in between all the ports you've got. You make panels of eighth inch steel, and what you do is you work them up in, you'll need three, basically, per door, because of the amount of space you have, and you have to angle them. You also have to take consideration the taper of the door at the base because it does taper inward. Remember that, it's got an arc. So you might want to just cut it to the arc, but you need to fold the middle metal so that it overlaps. You always want everything to overlap just by a little with nothing else. And what that does is that gives you double the protection on the edge of the panel. So what did that cost me? Well, I don't even know how many pennies I paid for the Kevlar. But the sheet steel from one of the kids down the road here who had a bunch of extra stuff laying around, it cost a total of, what, I think $5? And he liked the idea because once he saw what I was doing, he started making some for his vehicle. So there's all kinds of different ways you keep increasing. Now here's the balance. Remember, it's weight. This is why pickup trucks are always a better choice for armoring because what are they designed to do? Now, if you're really serious, one of the next steps down the road, beef up the shocks, increase the springs, it won't be riding like a buck board because if you add more weight, she's going to be rolling like an armored vehicle. When you hit a bump, she'll just kind of roll with the weight. But you still can use it as a pickup truck, you can use it as a troop transport. We've been trying to focus on crew cabs wherever possible. Crew cabs on 8 foot bed are harder and harder to find because nobody wants to come off them now because you can't get any of them that are decent. But these are all things that you can do and body armor and like everybody's saying here, go over to YouTube, punch in homemade body armor and look at it. Now all you have to do is think, expand the design for the areas of interest. You can make panels. that would go inside your doors using the same techniques but you're going to have to do them in pieces because you can't disassemble the door. It's all spot welded together and you have to work it through the available access points which is something. Now another thing you also don't forget this if you are going to use the windows if you're not going to replace the windows and just panel it over with Lexan okay. Which some people do Then you got to be able to roll the window up and down So that's the only other consideration is make sure that you Check to see that the operating components are not going to snag or tag anything you want to make sure that the inside Cheapest easiest way is just by yourself some cheap plastic That's however many mills something that's a panel and you make a panel it goes over everything on the inside So the inside where the armor sits towards the window window material Machinery is slick side you want it slick side. You don't want it even to be a cloth You want it slick side that way nothing can hang up and you don't have to come back and do more work You didn't want to a good subject. Thank you guys and everybody's input every can think of anything else be creative One of the other things that we had, I had a discussion, there was a car show here, not this last weekend, but the weekend before. Oh, what am I talking about? It was this last weekend. What a day. Anyway, last weekend. And we were talking about louvers, something everybody's been asking about, how would you armor the front? One of the things that everybody has had the same problem with is when they're armoring stuff up. is usually they're trying to add other pieces of technology in addition to armoring something up. And guys, that front louver area, you have to have volume. Now there's two ways that happens. You open up the front end more so you have more space for more air to pass through. Because even the air passing over the engine helps to cool. Not everything is perfect, but this thing with your vehicles that you're running right now doesn't mean everything's who you are. But one of the things is to take into consideration helper fans and going with volume by pushing more air, just pushing more with motor, with electric rather than with a manual fan attached to a belt. Okay? And adding more fans in general to pull more air over the radiator. Now, another consideration is to add a trans cooler or a pre-cooler into the system. Now, advantage is more cooling space, more cooling louvers, okay? Disadvantage, more plumbing if something gets shot. Always remember that when you add more to the plumbing it's something else that can be damaged So you have to have onboard repair technology to fix in the field what might be damaged or to be able to isolate and separate a damaged system when you have an add-on like that This can be you know a separate oil filter like a supplemental oil filter system. You want to have shutoffs both ends so that you can isolate the unit just in case it's been hit or it's been gagged or something failed. That way it's not becoming a bird done or it is bleeding something that makes the engine work right. Part of battle hardening or again prepping for what it is, we're looking at, you know, again a realistic scenario, whatever you got is all you got, what you got, you better know how to use well and you better be prepared now to work it out. One nice thing about, go ahead Culver, chip in there. Hey, this is Carl in Virginia. I want to mention there's a company that makes Door panel inserts they're made of Kevlar and supposedly they'll stop 762 by 39 and they make them for the common police vehicles for example for explorers and You don't need any special modifications. You just pull the belt molding off the door and Then slide that on down into the door panel and then put your belt molding back on. And then the idea after two years when you get your Homeland Security grant you can get a brand new Explorer and you pull this out of the old one and put it into the new one. So they can do that. If they can do that then we can do that. And I don't know how much they charge for these but they're assuming that you have this Homeland Security grant money. And so I'm sure the price is ungodly, but there's never a way you can't replicate that, perhaps using those Kevlar blankets, just modifying those or some other technology. Exactly. And remember, we can always overlap. We can put two layers in. Why just one? When you brought that up, it's like, wow, if I'm going to spend that kind of money and really I'm serious and some of you out there have the money, I'd put one in and then I'd put another one in. Whoa, why well two is better than one, you know, in other words, yeah, it'll probably stop some 60 by 51 NATO But if one supposedly will and probably will most the time I'll guarantee to will stop it every time So that makes for a good situation. Good color chip in there What that gentleman just brought up about the four explorers I bought this up before If people keep an eye out at lkq that's Lima, King, Queen. If they keep an eye out, it's a national pull-apart salvage chain. I know here in Oklahoma City, I have ran across, sometimes they buy wrecked vehicles that are police vehicles. If you just type in police into the search bar, you can see what that yard has that's on the yard. And they got multiple pictures. If it has the driver's door, More than likely it will have the ballistic panel in it and they didn't pull it or if it got wrecked on the driver's door They just leave it but usually most of the driver door are pulled on the police vehicles Least here in Oklahoma City. They only put them on the driver side door. They don't put them in The passenger or the rear of the vehicle or anything like that. So that would be a good option and it would probably be like 20 bucks because it's considered a plastic panel or panel door panel or whatever it's around like $20 and you would have a ballistic panel out of a police vehicle That's all I have mark perfect matter of fact like I said remember if it'll fit the left door the driver's door Then it probably can be squeezed into the right hand side door the right door the riders door and I'll bet you it'll fit just fine Which means if they got more than a few wrecks and if they're all left hand right hand, you know, but left hand I was right the first time Left-hand doors, well, I'll make the other, I'll make that left-hand foldover fit on the other side. And again, if I can get them for that cheap, oh yeah, I'd buy two for each door. Why? Well, two's better than one. Always remember that guys, two's always better than one. So, excellent. And again, good solution. So it's LKQ Salvage, LKQ. Find that on the internet and look to see what's local, if there's anything that is. It's just a simple LKQ mark. It's just big letters LKQ and then you have a way to search for your state to see where the nearest yard is in your state. And like I said, you can pull up picture, you can search that yard and you can see they'll take about four or five pictures outside vehicle pictures and then maybe one interior picture. So you can kind of see the shape of the vehicle and it puts the date when that car hit the yard. So obviously the longer, if it's been a couple of weeks, there could be less stuff on that vehicle. So, you know, the sooner you can get to it and you can even set up, they have a way to set up that you can have, if you put the specific parameters, it will send a text message when a certain type of vehicle hits the yard under your parameters that you put in. for that type if you're looking for that specific vehicle. So it'll let you know as soon as that type of vehicle hit the yard so you can get there as soon as possible to start removing parts before other people get to it. Excellent. So and again, that's a perfect source. So for everybody listening, this is national. LKQ is the search on Google and then look to see who the local facility is or nearest facility is and then start shopping, which is perfect. and we are, oh, I better double check here, sorry guys, I'm doing three things at once. Oh, we got time, good, oh, it just looks like we passed. Go ahead, jump in there. Forgive me for interrupting the program here. Hey, yesterday, Carl mentioned something about carriers, plate carriers. I think I heard a DPM and or a green color and something about a desert. Do you recall? I'd have to look at my notes. That note's not in front of me for that hour. Well, Carl did just call in, did he not? Yeah, Carl and Virginia. Carl and Virginia, you were talking about armor panels. I'll tell you what, if Carl's listening, he'd jump back in. Yeah, it wasn't armor panels, it was carriers. Oh, the carriers. Oh, yeah. Oh, no. That's okay. Sportsman's, yeah. Sportsman's Guide. Oh, okay. Go for it. Sportsman's Guide. And I will point out again, also look at Coleman's. But a third one is keep shooting dot-com keep shooting dot-com Correct. Yeah, I've got those bookmarked and everything very very very good. Yeah, see I recall here I recall here months ago that Botash had some US military Level 3a vests And they had them in woodland camo and I think the price was around $15, $16.00. Right, they had two different batches. Right, right, right. Now, here's the thing, right now, Botesh has undercover armor panels. But you got to buy the whole block of them. That's a lot. It's not like you're selling individuals. Right. I don't have a problem with the ballistics. I have interest in numerous of the actual vests and or carriers. You know, I have quite a few of my old, well, let's say old US military. had the Kevlar panel in the front section and fully in the rear for shrapnel and they were designed for 9 mil if I'm not mistaken. They were older, right? Some of them were made by Interceptor. And I recall that I've got like six. And what I've been doing is, is I've been going and putting in hard, hard plates, front and rear, you know, 10 by 12s. So I recall that Botash had those, I just missed out. And then yesterday I heard, I couldn't quite make out what Carl was describing. I figured that he, I did hear him say have again. So I assumed it could have been Botash. And I spent a long time looking at bow-tash, didn't come up with anything, but Sportsman's Guide is who I need to look for here. And I'll tell you what, those, do you recall if they actually had any of the soft armor in them? No, the ones that they had, the carriers were as cheap as $10, $11 apiece for the actual sleeve carriers. But these are military and I know that they've got the Italian, they've got the French, and they have the DPM in the DPM green and DPM desert. And the DPM desert was the cheapest. No, they're vast, but they're just the carriers. They're just the covers. They're not with armor. OK. Well, OK. Yeah, and we're talking Sportsman's Guide, correct? Yes, Sportsman's Guide and KeepShooting.com, both of those. Right, right. See, what I'd like to find is I'd like to find the ones, the ones that both Tash had, if I'm not mistaken, had the soft armor in there, you know, the flexible. Yes, they did. And again, most recently they've done... hold on. Most recently they've done a little different. They have the carriers by themselves. They've taken the armor out with the latest stuff that they just did and they've got the armor separate and the carriers off in another lot. I can't imagine giant warehouses being all around with those types of items just stacked away. You know, oh let me real quick. I'll tell you what guys keep an eye on Gov liquidation calm. You know we that's been dead for a while. We have you know I haven't even mentioned on the air But here's something that was weird gov gov liquidation is obviously still doing some work with the Fed with the DoD donut of destruction they had two semi truck size deep dumpsters full of Kevlar for a... now here's what's bizarre, it's okay, you're selling their Kevlar vests that they've cut, they've demilitarized them, okay? And they've piled all... well that's still good, there's all kinds of Kevlars. Kevlar, you don't care about smaller pens, we need it for all the things we're building. But here's the thing. It has the military disclaimer, cannot be used for original purposes, cannot be resold, there's this whole long list of what you can't do with it. Well why would you buy two dumpsters full of Kevlar if you can't do anything with it? It's just asinine, it's like you just know that whoever buys it, what are you going to do with it? You can't sell plastic scrap. Right, they're going to have to pay somebody under the table. Well, what happens is, oh no, it's a setup. Think about it. They sell it to you and then they let the government know and then you do something with it and then they go after you. Look what the Fed's doing with the gun shops. And they can watch all along the way for a very, very long time, gather a lot of information. Hey, thank you very much. I'm going to get with a sportsman's guide. Thanks. Yep. Okay, another caller. I heard a voice. Yeah, you just give it away for a donation. Right, that's what I'd have to do. I'd be like, well, I just chopped it. What'd you do? What'd you buy it for? I bought it to put a landfill. Right. However, we got to protect the landfill. What gets me about this is if you read it, it's like there's a paragraph. It's like a long, like 15-line paragraph of, you know, cannot do. Well, it's like you can't use it for what's intended. You can't resell it. You can't, you know, market it overseas. Now, of course, you expect that because you can't sell it overseas unless you have a war certificate, right? But all these cants, by the time we did it, it's like, okay, so what's the logic? Why would I buy it? Now, I know that Izzy Blatsenstein probably got it for free, got it for like, you know, $10 or $100. Now, here's the thing. You couldn't, the dumpsters aren't yours. You have to have something to put it in. So you have to go get another semi-dumpster, and then you still have to either have them dump. This stuffs they have to dump it and then reload it into something in order for you to move it because you can't either the big dumpster carriers don't come with a deal. So this is just stuff when I see it's like oh hell yeah this is a farmer there to I mean you could go to town you could armor your house and have leftover lots of leftover you can armor the whole house on the inside of Kevlar. and overlap it. You know, screw it on the walls. Just take fender washer with self-tapping screws and beep, beep, there's one. Now how does the other one overlap? Get that one, beep, beep, there you go. Minimal holes. And you literally could hang dragon scale in whatever you wanted to. You just wouldn't even if you didn't do anything to fix it, change it, cut it differently, whatever. Well, this is just kind of goofy stuff that's out there. You know, he was just saying, you know, well, those warehouses, Scott, you would, the amount of waste and destruction because of their paranoia, they're terrified of the idea that they want to be able to at their discretion. This is what royalty always does. They hate the American people. They're terrified the American people are getting tired of their satanic, pedo, queer nonsense. So typically the policy is that, you know, everything and anything they can, they will destroy. But especially in a situation like Kevlar doesn't kill anybody. It's a defensive tool But as you've seen the police state types, well, you can't have Kevlar. Why? Well, because if you don't have Kevlar then the police state can shoot you at their discretion and and you will cower in fear because you'll be terrified that the knuckle-dragging shoe-sized IQ bald-headed roided up nutcase is gonna point his red eyeballs at you and go Satan declares that the pedo-queer king demands that I kill you. Okay, so that's the kind of thing you're gonna run into on a regular basis now with the satanic pedo-queer government we have. I mean, they haven't been doing it for a while. It's just that now that, you know, they're going to be more open about it. They'll probably do a chant or some kind of dance before they, you know, execute, you know, large numbers of people. And they'll be doing this salute to ball and all the other fun stuff while they're busy poking each other in the rear end because they're queers. And maybe grab some children in the process because they're pedos. Because there'll be some kind of weird, bizarre, twisted ceremony that goes along with whatever they're doing. But they're always terrified of the population when you're a police state. Otherwise, you wouldn't have a problem with the American people, have them, whatever, because you're not doing anything wrong, right? We all know. Now, you got a whole country that can see right now. Remember that line? Remember that when he first puts on the sunglasses and goes into the grocery store and they live? And finally, he's talking, and the one female puts her hand up, she's one of the aliens. We got a whole bunch of Americans who can see. So, again, they can't really stop you from building body armor. And there's so many things, not the least of which is, don't forget, Mr. Sandbag is your friend. If you're in a hurry and you got to armor a vehicle up like a pickup truck real quick, guys, stack the sandbags right up to the gumball and the box in the back, and right there you got a bullet stop. Just that by itself. And the truck should be able to carry that weight without any problem, or you got a crappy pickup truck. Just that simple. Okay, it's supposed to carry a half ton, well, quarter ton, half ton, three quarter ton, one ton, one and a half ton, two ton. What size vehicle did you buy? And remember that the rating is always lower than the actual performance level of the vehicle. But Mr. Sandbag, if nothing else, is your friend. And on that note, if we were in a combat situation and we were having to, you know, improvise or pull in vehicles, you know, of any kind, even the ones we already have, Guys, lay a sandbag right in front of the driver's station on the hood. Lock it in however you want to with some twine or whatever just so it doesn't roll all over the place. You know, you figure out how to fix it. You've usually got little ventral's up front, you know, like your air intakes. Take a couple of bungee cords, hook them to those ventral to lock that sandbag right in front of the driver. Why? Well, when the driver's going down the road and if somebody's trying to take him out, bullets are coming right at him, that single sandbag will stop a whole lot of misery. And by the way, the driver, if you only have one body armor panel, one piece of vest you can wear, one helmet, who do they go on in the vehicle? They go on the driver. Because if the vehicle stops in the kill zone you all die So the driver should be armored whenever possible Always remember that offensive driving 101 the driver is the captain of the ship and if the ship hits the shoals and stops You all die in the shipwreck Okay, just a basic rule across the board. I think I heard I want to be safe Did I hear Edwards voice earlier? I just want to check He doesn't have to answer, but if I hit each, he'll chime in if need be. Okay. Now, we're almost to the top, and it has been two hours, and boy, it doesn't seem like it. This went fast. For everybody out there, I will remind you again, more ammo is better. They're trying to poo-poo AR 9mm rifles now as a fad thing, okay? I don't know why it's stupid. I don't have a problem with the air 15s and 9mm, the lower receivers, there's a fantastic innovative design. It works, it gets the job done, it makes for a nice light carbing caliber. 556 is minimal recoil, but 9mm is none. And for a lot of you, like I said, what needs to happen is we need a whole pile, a whole thesis load of M4 original with a pencil barrel, more like a Colt carbine. We need the lightweight barrel, nothing other than a plastic front hand guard, regular A-frame front, regular carrier, or a pop-up sight in the rear, which will make it a little lighter if you do that that way. with either an A2 or an A3, A1, A2, or A3 upper. But ideally it would be an A2 or an A3 nowadays. A3's flat top. They don't want to call it that. The big thing here again is lightening up the weapon to the insta-green making it much more convenient to carry and that's the other thing about the 9mm ARs they are very convenient to carry with a lot of integrated parts which means that it is very useful towards our war effort So while I don't have the greatest love for the AR-15, it is the gladiest of the day. We have to embrace it and we will make sure that it works well in our inventory for what's coming. We have bigger versions, smaller versions, short rifles, long rifles, and everything in between. We'll make it all work because we got more. All of their unfought equipment was intact and was at the river line. Had we gone in there, it wouldn't have been the nice cakewalk and they always yap about how, boy, war is really stupid, because these guys never fired a shot this or they did that. That's always punks after the fact yapping about stuff. The bottom line is, is they understood that it was more expensive and the war would have been as popular. That's why they put the brakes on it. Plus, if they captured anything more, they would have been fighting American equipment with all kinds of American documents. They didn't want anybody to see that. And not back in the early 90s. Because they had a cool propaganda line there with absolute blatant lies Anyway, we're at the top here defense in-depth guys. It means having a deep larder Also spare weapons doesn't mean it was what it is But you all need to know how to use different weapons because what you'll be taking from the enemy The confiscation of armor from your aggressor means you need to know how to use the mp5 the vs-90 bomb house rifle, whatever Anyway, we're going to the top. God bless the republic. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it.

That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it.

It's recorded in Proverbs 1620. Whoever gives thought to the word will discover good and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord. Yes friends, so very true. Let's prepare our hearts and minds this evening with our first hymn, Be Strong in the Lord by an Unknown Artist. An accurate, very talented writer of that hymn. Ephesians 6 verse 10 reads in part, Finally strong in the Lord and even his might. And most assuredly about that, and to the way things continue to go, but for those who know the Lord, of their personal Lord and Savior. victory is sure when you call upon his name. That can be a broad brush of victories there across the board there, friends. Christians, as well as others, find themselves involved with a constant struggle. But for the Christian, we can have, and we will experience complete victory. As we are involved in these struggles, whether they are physical, virtual, and or financial, and engaged in an unceasing fight and a war. We are a combatant, friends, a soldier in a conflict, as I mentioned spiritually and physically. But we can be strong and have the courage no matter what lies ahead. For our mighty defender is always there, and victory is ours when we call on his name, Jesus Christ. Remember, friends, Our Lord is our guide and on Him we can always depend no matter what situations we may be facing. He hasn't brought us this far, friends, to abandon us now. So be strong and rejoice for the victory is. Let's ask our Lord to bless our time here together this evening. Heavenly Father, we thank You for this opportunity to look into Your Word. to be reassured of the truths and the promises that are found within. And we are grateful, Lord, that You sought after us. And Father, we thank You so much for the opportunity to be here once again. And Father, we ask that You would illuminate our hearts and our minds so that we may take Your word forth into a dying world so that others may see. Please bless our time together here this evening. For it is in Jesus' name we pray. Amen. For our second hymn before this evening's message, bow the knee by an unknown artist. As we try to understand each other... He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the poem of death, even death on a cross. For this reason also, God highly exalted him... ...and bestowed upon him the name which is above every name, so that the name of Jesus Every knee will bow of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father Friends when the redeemed lift up their eyes and see the ones who set them free We'll all rejoice and gladly bow our knee For those who have got your Bibles handy, I encourage you to turn to Revelation 16. We will be starting that chapter this evening. We are continuing our series, God's Timeline to Eternity. We are looking at the details of the seventh Trumpet Judgment. This is part four of that detail examination. It is subtitled, The Third Great Wonder. the seven bold judgments. Terrifying judgment will stagger the human mind who's about to be unleashed upon the earth and those who are alive at that time. As we've studied previously, as the closing days of man's history counts down, which is referring to in Scripture as the great tribulation, There will be a series of three formidable and shocking judgments which will occur. And they will be so dreadful that many will die just from the shock of them occurring. And as we have learned, the first of these series of three is the seals judgments. While they are preliminary in nature, these are labeled by our Lord as the beginning of woes. These seal judgments move into the second series which are known as the trumpet judgments. These take place during the great tribulation. So you see as we all know, or many, and I'll go over this for those new listeners, the tribulation period is broken up into two parts. It's a seven year period of time. The first three and a half years is known as the tribulation and the last three and a half years are known as the great tribulation. And these seal judgments which move into the second of this series are known as the trumpet judgments and these take place during what is known as the great tribulation. With the seventh trump of these seven trump judgments announcing the beginning of the end. which is the third in a series of judgments known as the bowl judgments. Now some translations use the word vial in a container like a vial of flowers or a vial of fluid or whatever. But the main train of thought here is that in a bowl or a vial you pour things out. These usually do not have lids, so that means that it is not contained. It will be poured out in its full measure and strength. The Baal judgments are loosed at the very end of the great tribulation, marking the end of this present world. And as a note of interest, there have been many throughout the ages who claim that the world will be completely and utterly destroyed. No, it won't. It will be remade or made over anew. As a student of scripture knows, this has happened once already, where God remade the earth through water, and that's known as the great flood of Noah's day. The student of scripture also knows that God promised to never do that again or use water as a vehicle to remake the earth. We are giving that insurance of his promise with God's seal. His promises in the form of the presence of what is known as the rainbow. As we look at Genesis chapter 9 verses 8 through 16, it mentions God's covenant with his creation that all flesh will never be cut off through water or the flood and nor shall a flood destroy the earth in its entirety ever again. And God sets his bow in the clouds as his sign for all generations to see this promise and this covenant. But this time around, God will purge the earth of sin and wickedness with fire. When we look into 2 Peter chapter 3 verses 10 through 13, it reads, that the day of the Lord will come like a thief. in which the heavens will pass away with a war, and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up. Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for or in hastening the coming day of God? because of which the heavens will be destroyed by the burning and the elements will melt with intense heat. But according to his promise, we are looking for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. Friends, as John the Revelator records in Revelation 21 verse 1 where he records What he saw, and this is what he wrote, and then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth passed away. Yes, friends, the difference between the first and second judgments in the series of three is that the horrors and the terrors of the seals and the judgments bear limited, but not those of the bold judgments. For you see, the bold judgments are complete and total in their devastation. The ungodly and evil men and women will be stopped cold in their tracks in the most abrupt and succinct way. And our study of these bold judgments begins with a loud voice coming forth from the temple of God. A great voice crying. which cries, Go, pour out the wrath of God upon the earth. And looking at Revelation chapter 6 verse 1 it reads, And then I heard a loud voice from the temple, saying to the seven angels, Go, and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God. Most theologians believe this great voice is that none other than God Himself. God alone is the one which gives this order to those seven angels to pour out His wrath. After all, it's God's wrath being poured out upon the world and on those who are in it. The fact that God issues forth the decree for the bold judgments to begin allows the reader to be assured of several items. That God is just and righteous and therefore all can have confidence that he will set right all the wrongs and injustices upon the earth, and for the believer to eagerly anticipate and look forward to the coming of the Lord, and for the rebellious to cower and dread, that God loves and cares for the earth and all true believers, as a surgeon removes the offending disease from the body, so God removes sin and evil. for the believer. God refuses to allow ungodliness and evil to continue. And God puts an end to it finally and completely. Revelation 16.2, the next verse in our study, shows us the first bowl being readied and delivered upon the earth. The first bowl upon the earth, verse 2 reads, so the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth. And it became a loathsome and malignant sore on the people who had the mark of the beast and who worshipped his image. Friends, the first bold judgment pulled out brings forth an ulcerous sore which includes some sort of festering and oozing. As the word malignant can refer to in our day as cancerous, With all the tampering which man does with science and all that is around him, the GMO, genetically modified disc, that and so forth, it's not too far fetched that this process or the substance is used to create the mark upon the beast's followers. It has a reaction creating a painful and open and foul and putrefying sore. That is just an observation that I have made. The bold judgment which pours out these malignant and loathsome sores upon the followers of the beast who have received his mark is something that is not well to think about. These sores are totally ugly and repulsive in their appearance. and creating agony in our living torture upon the bearer. So much so that there will be no rest or relief. Imagine friends, a constant terror always reminding you to the point where you cannot think about anything else but that. And it most likely that it will also be incurable and branding completely upon those who receive it. The Antichrist and his followers. This judgment is very similar to that which is mentioned in Exodus chapter 9 verses 8 through 11. About which the Egyptians received ulcerous souls, wars and burials. And that which is mentioned also in Deuteronomy chapter 28 verse 35 where it reads And the word will strike you on the knees and the legs with sores and barrels, for which you cannot be healed from the sail of your foot to the crown of your head. Next in line is the second bowl judgment. And the second bowl is pulled out upon the sea, as we will see in verse 3 of chapter 16 of Revelation where it reads, And this second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood like that of a dead man. And every living thing in the sea died. Now that being blood like that of a dead man, I would imagine would be a congealed type substance, which, anyway. Most theologians believe that this will be worldwide and some others believe it will be contained to mostly the Mediterranean area where the Antichrist will be ruling and reigning. But we'll just have to wait and see. As those who believe it will be worldwide causing dead creatures to wash up upon the shores globally with the sites and the odors of death everywhere. Friends, As we've seen in our study in the first and second judgments of tribulation, the horrors, as you can see it, keeps getting worse and more intensifying. It's not going to be very pleasant at all, to say the least. All fishing industries will be immediately ruined, destroying in its wake all economic activities as well, to include shipping, obviously. This will be similar to the red tide, but vastly more intense. The entire global bodies of oceans will be destroyed if this is indeed a global event. Next is a related judgment which is found in the third bowl out pouring. The third bowl is upon the fresh waters of the world where we read in Chapter 16 of Revelation verses 4 through 7, then the third angel poured out his barrel into the rivers and the springs of the waters, and they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters saying, righteous are you who are and who were, O holy one, because you judged these things. For they poured out the bread of the saints and the prophets. And you have given them bread to drink, they deserve it. And I heard the author saying, yes, O Lord God, the Almighty, the true and righteous are your judgments. Friends, this judgment will cause all of the earth to drink polluted water. with very little benefit coming from it for it will be nothing more than a liquid substance with very little essence of life contained within it, just enough to keep one alive. When those of the world hear of these judgments, many question them for it just doesn't fit their idea of what they've been taught of who and what God is all about. For you see, most in the world or taught that he is a kindly and loving God. And this is true to an extent. And that he would never harm anyone. This is also true to an extent. But Jesus Christ himself told us of those who would object about these times and who would not be inclined to believe that God would bring judgments upon the evil and wicked of the world. And right in the middle of this judgment, the reader, as we read in our text, is reminded of why God pours out his judgments as he does. What are the reasons that God would do as he does upon the earth and towards those who dwell upon it? One might ask, well, first, because of the mass murder cast upon him by those who follow Satan's man, the Antichrist. Remember friends, the worst holocaust that the human race has ever witnessed, millions upon millions of people being slaughtered by the most inhuman methods and for the most evil of reasons will be occurring globally. Unlike the previous holocaust the earth has seen where it is regional or just even smaller than that. And secondly, because God is just and righteous, God will act as the most horrific evil encompasses the aglobed. God will reach a point when his lead for sinners and the ungodly followers of Satan and their rejection of God's righteousness, God will finally say enough is enough and punishes those who purvey evil upon their fellow men and women. So you remember. For they imprisoned and tortured millions throughout the ages. Therefore God's punishment will be of an equal type. And for those who have murdered and shed the blood of countless millions, therefore God punishes and His punishment will be bloody as well. God repays in kind, just as the angel declares, true and righteous judgment of God. God delivers just that upon all ungodly and evil men and women during this time in which we are looking at and studying. As the following verses also remind us when we look at Romans chapter 2 verse 2 where it reads, and we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things. Again, also in Psalm 145 verse 17 where it reads, The Word is righteous in all His ways and holy in all His works. As the student of Scripture remembers, the rivers of Egypt were polluted by God with a blood-like substance, which is found in Exodus chapter 7. verses 17 through 25. As the rivers of Egypt became as blood and as fowl that so no one could drink. The following bowl judgment is the fourth. The fourth bowl is poured out upon the sun. So as we look in Revelation 16 verses 8 and 9 it reads, and the fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun. And it was given to it to scorch men with fire. Men were scorched with fierce heat, and they blasphemed the name of God, who has the power over these plagues. And they did not repent, so as to give Him glory. Friends, as this judgment is pulled out upon the sun, it produces severe heat and radiation, which is unlike any the earth has ever encountered. Just being exposed to the direct sunlight would be enough to cause terrific burns upon the skin. This will cause men and women to gloat. And as they deal with their misery and their torment, they'll still refuse to repent. And they'll continue to curse God. And as they do like all them before them have done, and being of similar attitudes when things go bad, They always blame God. During this time it will be no different. But this time God will be the one who is causing their discomfort. But what makes this different is that God is punishing them. Whereas before man just chose to blame God for their own sinful nature, sinful attitudes, sinful actions and mistakes. Friends, God has sent prophets. God sent His word, and God even sent His Son all to much avail. Zechariah chapter 7 verse 11 reads, still acts the same way. Steburnly turning his back upon God and refusing to hear and acknowledge the truth, desiring to listen and take up lies and myths so that he can live according to his own desires. Men and women have no one to blame but themselves for where they end up in eternity. In the fifth bowl, is poured out upon the beast's feet, or his throne, or his kingdom. And as we look in Revelation 16, verses 10 through 11, it reads, Friends, as this fifth bold judgment descends upon the power and the kingdom and the followers of the antichrist, darkness comes upon them. I believe this darkness is much alike a calm before the storm, if you will. Even though previous judgments have come and occurred, and even though these previous bold judgments are coming, and even more intense, I believe that this darkness is a warning of the impending doom of the antichrist and his followers. This full darkness will not be one of spiritual darkness for you see friends these people are already spiritually vacant. This will be a thick veil like darkness, heavy and pitch like. And as I note, as our text refers, this seems to only affect the kingdom or the domain of the man of Satan. and the other nations don't seem to appear to be affected. Although other nations are guilty of association with and or per taking in the offenses perpetrated by the beast kingdom and his regime, these other nations are probably not actively plotting as the anti-Christ and his regime is. So it appears They might be spared a few of these judgments for the time being, but however, they'll still experience the full, total, and complete destruction and the coming battle of Armageddon. Even though all the world's nations will be in effect, complacent with the antichrist regime from one extreme or another, Satan's man, the antichrist, We'll be sitting at the head of some world organization similar to the UN or the European common market. The prophet Joel predicted this darkness. If one was to look in Joel chapter 2 verses 1 through 2 it reads, Surely it is near, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness, as the dawn is spread over the mountains, so there is a great and mighty people. There has never been anything like it, nor will there ever be again after it, to the years of many generations. Our Lord also predicted that the sun and all other light would be darkened, stricken with heavy, pitch black darkness. As our Lord speaks in Matthew chapter 24 verse 29, that immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light and the stars will fall from the sky and the powers in heaven. will be shaken. Friends, as our text indicates, the suffering will be so traumatic that the people alive at this time will literally maw upon themselves. Their sores, the thirst, the filth, and the smell of dead and dying from water's pollution, the squishing heat, intensifying it all and compounding it to its feet totally unbeadable. And now, unable to see due to the thick darkness, still these wretches refused to repent, becoming so hardened and so rebellious. As the student of Scripture recalls, a thick and heavy darkness fell upon Egypt as well. As one can read of the account in Exodus chapter 10 verses 21 through 23. Where Moses stretched out his hand and darkness fell upon the land. So thick that it could even be felt. That's pretty dark friends. It's been said, and I've used this illustration before, but in a very short version of it. It's been said that in the deepest case, when there is absolutely no light or artificial light on, But people would literally go mad, stumbling and looking around for the way out. Darkness is also used in Genesis 19. When the visitors, angels, and lots howl struck the villagers with blindness due to their sinful desires. The sixth bowl poured out upon the Euphrates River, which is found in Revelation 16, 12 through 16. And the sixth angel poured out of his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates. And this water was dried up so that the way would be prepared for the kings from the east. And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet three unclean spirits like frogs. For they are spirits of demons performing signs which go out to the kings of the whole world to gather them together for the war of the great day of God Almighty. And behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes so that he will not walk about naked and men will not see his shame. And they gather them together to the place. in Hebrew is called Armageddon. Friends, our text speaks of the laying of the way for the kings of the east and preparing the nations and the armies of the world for the great battle of Armageddon. This bold judgment is just one of deception rather than that of affliction. There are several facts to notice concerning the instigation of the Antichrist and his regime that pushes the earth to the last great war known as Armageddon. The drying up of the Euphrates River, for it is the longest and most important river in Western Asia, being that of 1,780 miles long. Ranging an average between 300 and 1,200 yards wide, and depths range between 10 to 30 feet. This prophetic occurrence can be brought to fruition with the flick of a switch. The drying up in Euphrates, your whole UC friends, the Anatole Dam, in the south of eastern Turkey can now reduce the mighty Euphrates River into a dried riverbed in a short period of time. Also, to take a note of, China is building a major super highway which will reach the Middle East. And this highway is dedicated for military use only. The Kings of the East. This is a great armed confederation of nations which form and march against Israel. They march troops to secure the land that they want. For it takes boots on the ground to conquer a nation if one desires to preserve its resources. As mentioned in our text, there will be a spirit which drives the confederation of nations. Those are those three small spirit-like demons that go out to all the kings of the earth. The spirit which drives the confederations of nations and also mentioned the kings of the east, there's also kings represented from other points of the compass too. The kings of the north, which is all nations above Israel, including the obvious, which is Russia. If you were to draw a map on a map aligned directly north from Jerusalem, you would end up in Russia. The kings of the south, the Arab countries, including those of the African continent, and the kings of the west, a western alliance made up of some European nations, which most likely will include the US and Canada. All these friends will gather from every nation, taking its individual side or its individual alliance to protect their interests. And most likely that of not only obviously being oral and natural gas, but as we've seen, water could become even more valuable than them. Evil and demonic spirits will be at work here. And as our text indicates, they'll spread deceptions and work miracles. deceptive dreams of glory and triumphs in the hearts and minds of men and women visions of grandeur setting passions aflame for these glories and these triumphs and fear in the hearts of men for our third and final hymn this evening before the throne of God above by an unknown artist We fought a revolution for liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave. In this the land of the brave. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this the land of the free, the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate. And your Christian values can't be taught according to the state. You read about the current news in a regulated press. And you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You trade it in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize family farms and keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery and guns to foreign shores and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you'll fight to save? Or do you wish your children? to live in fear and be a slave. O sons of the republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, preserve our great republic and each god given right, and pray to God, keep the torch of freedom burning bright. As I awoke, he vanished in the mist from whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled each God-given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside to dream while you were asleep and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, what would be your answer if he called out from the grave? One day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories Northeast West and North Ladies and gentlemen you were listening to us on www.libertytreeradio.4mg.com LibertyTreeRadio.org We're on satellite, say hi all our merchant marine operators on every ocean on the planet, virtually. And we're in a myriad of other communications technologies, inside and outside these United States. It is Weapons Wednesday, it is the 21st of June, it is the 15th year of open and in your face, Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist occupation. America with a K2023 older calendar 2023 battle for the Republic the dance of swords Footwork shield blade footwork shield blade Any combination but keep moving keep moving keep moving battle axe broadsword bow Albert spear Tom Hawk stone mallet, whatever bunk bunk you nasty grump buck bunk Always remember that Star Trek old series Anyway, weapons Wednesday, couple things. There's a couple of interesting guns showing up on the horizon. But right now, Meadow State Armory and Bear Creek Arsenal both have 9mm ARs in the inventory. And there is a reasonable price package. And I haven't talked that much about them. Our, in first category, our 556-762x39, 545x39, etc. That's our understanding, our belief, that's our, you know, that's how we crop things here. The 9mm car beans, or utility car beans, light car beans from the other direction, are fantastic because of their lack of felt recoil and, again, ability to, you know, perform volume fire tasks. One of the things you're going to have to balance out is well normally the squad automatic rifleman would be suppressing with a Comparable weapon to whatever the rest of the squad is using or a superior cartridge a superiority cartridge the team is using 5 5 6 squad gun is using 760 by 51 NATO 30 out 6 or any number of other MBR main battle rifle calibers The big thing here again is going in the other direction for a patter fire or suppression fire within the 200 yard range which seems to be what everybody argues that's the it's as far as you can think or shoot mostly. Okay, let's embrace that. Well, if that's the case 9 millimeter I can carry three 9 millimeters for the price of 1 5 5 6 I can tighten up the 9 millimeter carbine quite nicely or like 9 millimeter light rifle, however you want to look at it, to the point where it'll do everything the 5.56 will do. And since it's not typically a contact gun, it's a suppression arm, it's not critical with regard to additional energy. Now, it'd be nice, but one of the things we have to take into consideration is lack of munitions production. Our rifleman should be focusing on individual hits. When you're designated as a rifleman, this means you aim, you don't spray and pray. Doesn't mean that we don't use our, if you have select fire, which most do not right now, and most of you couldn't use it if you got it. Not intelligently. So focus on rifle marksmanship with the training capabilities you presently have. Because you do not have select fire, and I don't want you to go run out and finding it right now. Take it off the enemy corpses when the time comes and progressively develop your skill in the meantime with your basics with regard to all of your firearms, okay? You want to find out about automatic fire? You know, you can go to different places and rent the guns. And you need to actually do that with some supervision so that you will find out why it is you probably can't afford an automatic weapon with regard to automatic weapons fire. But also, it does require developing expertise. Personal flavor choice. You feel you got to do that? Go do it. Not going to stop you. But mostly, 99% of everybody out there listening, independent rifle marksmanship is key to our victory. Okay? Doesn't mean you have to use a manually operated rifle. I may use both. Manually operated or a semi-automatic weapon. Purely depending upon tool in the tool. Tool coming out of the toolbox at the moment. Depending on where I am and what it is that I have to use. or its selection based upon what I feel the mission need is at a particular time. It's a nice thing about having a golf bag full of golf clubs. Okay? And each club has a reason, a purpose, an existence. It has a destiny. So anyway, the 9mm rifles. One of the other nice things about the latest family is commonality of magazines. My God! That's not true of everything but still they have narrowed down because of a lack of military production in mass of SMG submachine guns, which would be a 9 millimeter 762 by 25 40 caliber 45 ACP take your pick depending on the era most of those mean you know 40 caliber not being in the mix until more recently over military mags though have survived through 70 80 And in some cases, there were so many of the suckers built that they've been around for 19 years and they're still finding more in surplus. Okay, let me give an example. Thompson. Guys, the last wave of Thompson drums came in from Central America and they were the a combination of both the 50 and even had some 100 round drums. Which of course commanded a maximum price there are also different size sticks for the regular Thompson or the 1928 or the M1 M1 a1 Thompson there you go. How's that and What's interesting though is they've been relatively cheap for the longest time. They were very cheap. They were giveaway prices Nobody had a Thompson. So what would you do auto ordinance made a semi-auto? That's it? But grease gun mags, ten gun mags, all those have been out there so basically for the longest time any 9mm or .45 caliber type SMG or light, light, light carbine would have a silhouette matching the kind of weapon the magazine came from. The WASP, the Commando Mark 1, 2, 3 and 4. The mark, each one progressively changing a little in design. One a hybrid, kind of looks like a, actually looks more like an Owens, even though it has the lines of the Thompson, it has this cylindrical receiver. And the commando carbines were built out of Florida, there were many, many, many of them made. I know a lot of people who have gotten cashed away, bought them for $75 a piece. You know up to 150 apiece there at the time. They were the only 45 carbine you could get 45 ACP then Marlin came out with some stuff and whatever But the Thompson look-alikes have always been popular because the Thompson mag was cheap Under a dollar a magazine. Okay, so you could buy lots and lots of them those days are gone However, they're not gone as far as available magazine potential because the Glock mag Which is a very wise thing to do Glock became phenomenally popular. It's a throwaway gun. Oh my god I just insulted all the Glock owners. Well originally it was supposed to be a throwaway gun and it still technically is You're supposed to crank them out of a Bugs Bunny factory conveyor belt system and Have a box at the end of the conveyor belt and you just pick one of the box and when that broke grab another one That's how they were built. That's what they were for But the magazines, oh god, because the magazines are polymer and they are everywhere, how many different manufacturers of Glock mags are there now? You know? I don't think there's any official count. And some companies have come and gone, simply because they, you know, got out of the business even though they had made a good mag. So you have many different companies producing magazines, meaning that the Glocks are gonna be fed for a very long time, even if they were stopped production right now. But what's really cool is somebody finally took to heart the idea that well hell this magazine is out there That's the cheap magazine to go to So while I love the high point and I recommend the high point if you want an American-made gun That is 100 has 100% warranty across the board will eat any kind of ammunition no matter which caliber it is Whatever chain bring it will eat everything out there. It's already been proven. The high points are fantastic But the AR 9 millimeters are an excellent solution. And one of the big reasons is how many Glock mags can I carry in a big bag? I just reach into my big tote bag. I don't put them in mag pouches. I just reach into my tote bag, shove it into the magazine well, operate the action, and pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop Now, in reality, I'd get the longest intelligent barrel for the 9mm that I could. You don't want to go very long with a 9. You want to keep it certainly within the carbine rifle requirement. You do not gain at a certain point you actually end up neutral and then you lose energy with a longer barrel when you attach it to a carbine type weapon. This is why the .45 is at the very limit. You know, I guess I'll explain to you this way. What's the length of a Thompson submachine gun barrel? What's the performance of the 45 ACP round and why did they make the Thompson barrel the length that they did? Okay, they understood the physics. In order for you to conform to government regulation for a carbine, the 45 has to be at least 16, you know, also a 16 and a half. I never like being right at the limit. You always want to have lots of overage. But 16 plus inches I have a, an actual, I'm neutral. I don't, in fact, depending on the load, I might lose a little velocity. This sounds weird, but it's a fact. Typically though, because fortunately, you know, the powers that be and the reloading, loading companies built the way they are, it doesn't lose, but it doesn't gain anything significant with a four inch longer, five inch longer barrel on a, 45 ACB carbine, so it's definitely serviceable, but I wouldn't go any longer than that. Now the 9, I can press it a little farther, but not much also, and I don't really want to for the purpose of the gun itself, it's mission. Bipod mount it, go with a heavy barrel, put whatever optic you want on the top. If you think you need an optic, make sure you do have iron sights. A vertical grip is an option and basically what you have is a poor man's squad gun. Now it's not bad. I don't want to get hit with a 9mm, don't want to get hit with a .40 caliber, don't want to get shot by anything really. But 9 and .40 cal would be an optimal chambering and for suppression and being able to dump rounds on a target to keep, you know, proverbially, keep their head down. Then the 9mm will do everything the other rounds will. Especially if you're actually focused, know where the gun hits. And you're within the 220 yard mark, which everybody claims that's the average combat engagement range. 9mm effective at 200 yards. Well, but my body armor will stop it. Yeah, but if you get hit, are you going to stand there and wait to see if you're going to get hit again? Well, no, of course not. So it's done its job. Suppression, fire. Is designed to keep you guessing. Now if you want to really be mean, you have two squad gunners. What? Yeah, yeah, your first one's using a nine. This is a neat trade-out. This is like using 22s to lure your weapon at your enemy in and then switching, having your other riflemen ready with heavy rifles of any kind. They hear a pew pew pew pew. Oh, they only got 22s. And you don't stop doing that. You keep pittering away at them. They feel confident. They move closer. They move in. They even actually are willing to move because they're armored up. And then boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom They feel better about it because, oh, you probably are low on ammunition or at least you're improvising adapting, but you're not going to overcome because they have body armor. They're 200 yards. And as they feel they've got their oats, they start to move. That's when the heavy rifles kick in. And away we go. So there are a lot of different tricks. There are things that can be used on the battlefield. They all work to change the art, but they all work. Go ahead, call the chip in there. This is Carl in Virginia. I just want to mention that if you're shooting through walls like in the interior of the house, like drywall, pistol calibers will penetrate and keep on going better than 556 will. 556 will deflect and it'll tumble, integrate, but counter rounds will keep on going. As a matter of fact, 9mm is perfect for that mission in ball. Always ball ammo guys. This is what we talk about, ball ammo. You're going to be going through obstacles. You will have to go through obstacles. And your enemy is certainly armored. So you've got to remember that you need to go up in energy and you need to go deeper with penetration. And ball ammo is still your first best choice for pretty much all that work unless you have discarding Sabo for certain heavier guns, which then it's like a ray gun. And the other advantage here again too is the size of the weapon it's actually built for, like we just talked about here a moment ago, Urban Warfare, or Mount Warfare as everybody likes to call it in this day and age. They probably got another new name because they got to bullshit everybody about how things have changed and they haven't. Mount warfare, urban warfare, hasn't changed at all. Just the idea of learning all the tricks of the trade and all the generational tricks and you'll win. Most important is obstacles and remember to put junk between you and them. That's the critical issue here. And yes, even body armor puts junk between you and them. But net bags, cement blocks, and all the other good stuff out there. Dents is what you want. Go ahead, jump in there. Hey, I got a music request since we were talking about body armor earlier and it's another one by skillet is called invincible Well, you know what we're gonna do this cuz I had well first of all Ed's probably listening and I think we got all the bugs worked out of the problem hopefully Invincible skillet in Vince able Invincible And we probably got another request after that from me too, but let's do this. Ed, if you could, let's pull up Skillet. It's 19 minutes after the hour. Skillet, invincible. Of course, no, it's all a matter of attitude. I can't emphasize that enough. So everybody understands that we can win, the shorter the war will be, because we can win. Oh, I don't want to do this with the music coming up, but hopefully it is. And again, Skillet. dash invincible and you probably find it on YouTube I would assume. Also a reminder we were talking about body armors carriers but sleeves like for the military armor in camouflage go over to Sportsman's Guide dot com and we'll be back. No render, no trigger, fingers go, live in the dangerous light. I'll be tonight. Drink your swollen prostate and pee. Wide range of music, wide range of authors, all of them beat down stompin' music, okay? Or, again, just inspirational in one form or another. This is taking an old lumber shanty, making it a patriot song. They are a jolly crew of boys so merry and so fine, Who while away the winters are living among the fine. From the Mississippi to the mountains covered in pine, These are the lands that our love it doesn't shrine. So come on up ye merry men before the break of day, And join our jolly troop of rebels in the woods away. While all we want, I think, is clear, though a fed won't understand, is the freedom and the dignity of a free Midwestern man. For if we win, we'll sure bring back the things that made us great. For we used to be the steel heartland of the old United States. The feds in Washington, D.C., are tiring through and through. With guns and tanks and bombs they steal all from me and you. Their laws and dictates only serve to make us bleed for them. But enough's enough, we've bled too much, so now we stand again. So stand on up and join the strike, we'll bleed the feds all dry They'll never strike our homes again or the homes of our allies They need us more than we need them, we don't need to comply With quotas and the orders for the federal supply Well in the south there's a better space than better old machines While in the west they hold the line from desert to mountain green The rest of them they do supply with food and gasoline. Such a web of allies we do make a wild scene. Well in Washington DC the tyrants think that we are dead. They're sure that the Great Lakes will never ever wish them dead. But our first revolt, though we lost, will surely keep us safe. For the feds now turn their backs to us and face the rebels' state. But now the word has reached our ears of rebels in the north, from Rochester and Burlington, and conquered they come forth. And now we have a fighting chance to save our lousy state. For soon the tyrants will be overthrown and we will set things straight So raise the banners once again we send as once a die Cost once before but now we'd love to see them try We know now what they'll do to act if we lose the bloody fight So never will we surrender for today, still or die. Come, old ye jolly shanty boys, come listen to my song. It's all about the shanties and how we get along. We are a jolly crew of boys so merry and so fine. While the way the wind turns, I'll live in among the pine. That's Shanty Boys, before that skillet with Invincible. And make sure I get that right. Oh God, that's always horrible when you're writing things and you, oh, there's a letter. It should be there, but it's not. Anyway, it is Weapons Wednesday. You're reminded of your first best weapon and it is of course important that we restock. Classic firearms, we had a bunch of deals on 556. Not the best, actually. We ended up with a pretty good one here that came in the other day. I don't know if it's still active or not, we'll have to find out. But again, classicfirearms.com, also as I mentioned before, they do have a lot of police trade-in and surplus. Now that comes and goes quick. I've noticed that they are doing the kind of business that JG Sales used to do with trade-in, police trading guns. So Classic has got a really good turnaround going, but they also have some pretty good deals I've seen. Classic and Atlantic pretty much are getting the same inventory from the same mercenary slash rent revolution companies. You might have noticed there was a big wave of Beretta Model 92s, most recently a hodgepodge of the 380 Auto pistols, which of course everybody's poo-pooing. They're trying to bring the prices down, so I think what they're trying to do, not everybody, but certain people are so they can manipulate the market, okay? But in addition to that, I don't know if you've seen it, but a bunch of Lugers have been coming in. Mostly they're being rescued from Canada and they're getting them out of Canada before the Communists try to chop what are basically priceless antique arms. But I'm going to tell you something right now. I'd carry a Luger in a heartbeat. I wouldn't have any problem with it. It's nothing exciting. I mean, it's a great gun. Works. The biggest thing you have an issue with there are minor springs, especially if you have World War I guns. We have a lot of World War I weapons in the inventory. In handguns that would be brought back from the war. Brumhandle Mausers, even Bouchards, of course. The Bouchard is the mother of them all. But I'll tell you ones that I really like are the Austrian sub-automatic pistols from the World War I and post-World War I period. They were great little ideas. They used to be cheap. Nobody wanted them. You could give them away for $60, $70, $80 and these were 9mm or 9mm styre. They use a stripper clip system like the broom handle mouser and typically were made in 9mm parabellum but 9mm styre you may also find them in that chain ring. They're a very serviceable gun. You can't lose the mags. The stripper clips, of course, are the issue like everything. If you do have a proprietary stripper clip, which this is, it's a broom-handle type, then you're having to dig those up. But the weapon can be loaded individually, individual cartridge. And if you do have any of them, I wouldn't get rid of them. In fact, I would consider them as one of the many weapons that It'll either be a handout or it's a cash gun or a stash gun around the property so you don't have to run across the house or even across the room. You just reach into a spot, pull the weapon, start nailing somebody coming through the door or peeking through the window, and that starts the conflict and makes barking noises. See, this is something else I will, I want to remind everybody about real quick. We don't need silencers, but we also don't want them. Why? Well, your enemy is a snake. Okay, Sneaky Pete thinks they're gonna come out, slink through the back 40, slide up behind the barn. That's a kill zone. We've already got that set up. But they'll come in, they always look at your, look at the area from how would your enemy prefer. They're gonna ride up hard fast or, and which means come straight at you. Or they're gonna play Sneaky Pete. Either way, whoever makes first contact needs to make lots of noise. And yeah, buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh bu Okay, there's the first 20 rounds. Wow, would you really do that? Well, I'd aim low for, you know, like mowing down below the vehicle and mow up into the vehicle, yes. And I'd probably stop for a second, resettle and fire a little bit more, but the idea that you've dumped 20 rounds of 760 by 51 NATO and effectively try to keep it into a target area, it's obvious the threat's upon you. That's as good as a steel gong or a triangle or anything else you'd use for a warning order. In other words, small arms fire means you're under attack. Here's the other thing about that. If small arms fire is being discharged to your front, say the front area of the house, immediately anybody to the rear quadrants or on the property looks to the rear and actually all 360 degrees because the threat will come at you from any direction. And typically all directions. Most important is to pick off whatever, you know, team detachments, two-man groups they might be sending in at obliques or angles because your initial purpose is to blunt and create casualties. You don't have to kill them, you just have to hurt them horribly. You want them screaming into the radios you want them, you know thinking that maybe this was not a good day to come out and play police state That's what it comes down to so you need to be prepared Most importantly is you need to be ready so that you can reach and and defend yourself your handguns Take you to the heavier weapons. You may have heavier weapons and then reach some people have a lot of guns I love my Finnish friends the Finlanders truly believe guns are for buying not for selling It's where I got that axiom from from the old gentleman up in the UP Guns are for buying, not for selling. And you should be thinking the same way. Better to have something that goes boom and puts a bullet on them at any range than having to throw a rock or use harsh language and go, darn, I wish I had. Okay? That doesn't mean you can't have Tom Hawks machetes stationed everywhere. Machetes are cheap. I mean, my God, you can go over to Tractor Supply, take your pick. There's a pile of them. I've already mentioned the defoliator I've got sitting here. It's about the size of a traditional Gladius. And it really, if you were to drop a hundred of these into the past, with a stainless blade like this, oh, dudes. It'd be like weapons from the gods. Okay, so again, every weapon and any weapon, you need to think about where you're gonna place it, make sure that it's out of sight, but readily available. But this is why silencers are not really for us. The other side is trying to play backstabbing monkey-poking sneaky Pete. Besides, if you want a good silencer, exterminate everybody in the other side or whatever, the bushwhack or ambush, whatever, strip the enemy dead. And whatever they're carrying, well, some government paid for it. China, Canada, could be anybody. Probably our tax dollars paid for the can heads to come here to attack us, which typically is going to be the case, but it's the idea that whatever they're using, well, you know theirs works. Look at your enemy as nothing but a mobile resupply pod. Okay? Now we're at the bottom of the hour and it's Weapons Wednesday. There's one thing we do on Weapons Wednesday for the bottom of the hour. And we're a little past the bottom of the hour, but that's okay. And for our traditional Weapons Wednesday bottom of the hour break, we do. Also, you're listening to LibertyTreeRadio.4MG.com, LibertyTreeRadio.org. And of course, it is Weapons Wednesday. I was mentioning companies that have the body armor carriers, not the plate carriers. We're talking about military spec, wraparound body armor, conventional systems. There's French, Italian, Brits out there, DPM camo, DPM desert, those are the cheapest. But if you look, you can find them at sportsmansguide.com, sportsmansguide.com, sportsmansguide.com. You also find them over at keepshooting.com, keepshooting.com, keepshooting.com. Also, yes, there are some of these items that sometimes pop in over at center fire. It's not the only, these aren't the only places. You can do a search wherever you want. But these are good sources where they have consistent, if you're looking for quantity, you can also usually find quantity there. But keep shooting's been kind of low and as everybody is in certain surplus. Last but not least, Coleman's. They have a few of the empty carriers. These do not have Kevlar in them, but they are the carriers. If you're going to build your own armor or cut Kevlar that's out there that you might have acquired, then yeah, you can put a really kick butt vest together and you don't have to figure out what kind of, where to, whether or not the carrier is going to work. These are military carriers. They work exceptionally well. They're designed to offer neck armor protection, shoulder protection, doubled, front and back obviously with additional sleeves for supplementing armor, and they usually have groin armor and a gorges. The gorges is that throat piece, Pamela, that goes right up in the center. Yeah, that's horrible when you get your throat blown out. Or well, you might still get it punched because I've got this funny feeling. The soft armor will probably stop what you might have been trying to stop. But it's still gonna dimple something so you might not be speaking quite right for a little while But at least to your head still attached to your shoulders That does make a bit of a difference. Okay? The big thing here again as we pointed out go to YouTube There's a whole ton of videos on making your own armor experiment do research play around look at it and go, maybe I can come up with a better idea. That's really what we need is everybody, when they look at a project or a subject, I've got an idea that might work. Now, if you build something and then you don't like it, well, don't throw it away. It's another piece of body armor. It can go somewhere, go on a vehicle, go in front of the driver, like we were talking about, which is really cool. You can place it in another location, even if you just laid it against the wall in the house. Something else is slow bullets down kind of handy. So one way or another you can make it work for you The big thing is, you know again do the research pick out what it is you want to play with Go to town do it. Don't just think about it. Do it just do it Also, somebody was asking and this is an email from Walt and Walt way up again. We know where it's actually we have north over in Eastern Washington State. So Walt, 6.8 projectiles. Now, here's the thing. Go take a look at the dimension for the new 6.8 government rifle round. Then go to Hornady and cross-reference the spec and take a look at how that bullet is listed. Is it listed as a 6.8 in that dimension? What bullets are in there? I want you to do the research. Go, in fact, you can do a quick search, the new 6.8. by 51 rifle round. All the information can be pulled up all at once. They have a nice little printout. Several different places have done this. You've got either a line drawing schematic or you have a photo, a computer photo image. And it gives you the specs for the bullet both with regard to dimension, proper dimension, also proper length. I'm talking about the projectile. We're talking about the overall case and the projectile. Talking about just the projectile, but also case specs, the whole nine yards. Now, as far as we know, those are reliable, but the bullet is the big thing. And now compare it. Once you have the spec for that bullet, go over to Hornady and or take your pick with every bullet company that's been around for a while and compare and find that size and tell me what they lift it as. Oh. Whoa, wait a minute. Why did they do that? Yeah, well, it's because they want to make it sound like they were doing something utterly totally totally utterly different in reality pretty much ammunition Design always feeds off whatever is out there in the system and they just throw a dart pick what they what they Choose to go to because they think it'll be Oblique slash alien enough people won't recognize it and then they come up with the BS story to promote it. It's how it works. Okay However, the big thing here again is that if you are going to get into this 6.8x51 program for building cartridges, one of the things to consider is to put together a drop block or whatever. Remington's are really great for this, Remington rolling blocks. and actually building a single shot rifle to develop your loads. If you're actually that proficient that you're building things and you have a shop, then take a look at the Remington or take a look at building a test rifle system because it'd be rather interesting to see what we can come up with in the way of changes. I know government spends billions and gets pennies worth of product. We have the ability to take something look at it and go far beyond the restrictions that the regime will place upon The poor sad souls that make up what little they have in the way of any kind of gray matter in these operational circles So what we're looking at right now is we're gonna be able to cut to a quarter if not One-tenth the cost for the loaded case As opposed to what the government's getting jacked on. Okay. In fact, I believe Now that we know the specs and we understand the performance range and we've got all the ballistics and everything on both the advanced round and the original I gave fact. Oh by the way before forget the helmets are on their way the career has been has we handed off the helmets to our our friend those are going on to the Training unit the militia and if it's going to be testing them and in addition to that One of the things that I did is I sent along all three of my Frankfurt, not my backup, it's not my primary, my backup Frankfurt Arsenal books. These are big ass books. They were done in the late 70s and early, middle 80s. And what it was is a guy put together a listing of developmental bullets, cartridges, cases of all types, and he went back, started out with book one, it goes all the way back to the Civil War. And it literally is page by page by page by page, nothing but specs for unique ideas that Frankfurt Arsenal had, which was a US research arsenal. They also produced ammunition, they produced weapons, but Frankfurt's first mission was to develop cartridges, develop munitions. And when we get into the 7.62x51 NATO, which is in the first book, but then he did an advanced section in what is the third, the second, not the third, second book of the series. There I think is about a quarter of the book committed. Now this is a nine, this book is nine by 12 format. It's a massive big book to begin with because the illustrations are scale. What he demonstrated in the second book is just how many ways they perfected the 30 out 6, that's the lesser section in the second book. The first one covers out 6 completely. But in the second book, he pulled out more blueprints, more specs, more of everything on 7.62x51 NATO specialized rounds. When you look at this, and I know our friends that are listening, you can get their helmets today, but they're also going to get these books just to study, and I got to have them back. Now, they're going to somebody else real soon with regard to the 6.8 Project. But if you look at these books and you look at the information, Then you'll understand what I'm talking about when I say that it's all bullshit, it's all BS, it's all garbage that they do. Oh, well, a totally different route than the 762 by 5180 could never be developed this one. No, never, ever, ever. It's all BS. It's a lie. They're liars. If they're willing to spend the kind of stupid money that they're spending on the new 6.8 advanced cartridge, you could buy superior loading in 7.62x51 NATO that would perform flatter, hotter, and with greater penetration and would cost about, we could buy probably around 17 of the 7.62x51 NATO advanced rounds over the price of one of the 6.8. You would not have to change the case. You didn't have to come with some bullshit multi-piece case which is supposed to be cheaper but in reality just a piece of crap is going to fail. And on top of that you're using off-the-shelf technology except again you're developing the bullet, the projectile. And 30 caliber offers a lot more space than you might imagine. Let me give you an example of what Frankfurt did. They actually had a spec for a timed artillery rifle round. Everybody goes, what? Imagine if you will, all of the technology inside, that's inside a 90 millimeter air defense gun, scaled down and put into a 30 caliber rifle bullet. Your government did that. They made a round that could reach, you know, it actually had like a kind of a formatted proximity fuse. And it would go to a certain distance, kind of like an RBG-7. It would go out as a bullet. If it hit anything, it would burst. But as it went out, when it got to a certain range based on, you know, the mechanical formula of the timing on board, the round would explode and create fragmentation. It's only 30 caliber. Yeah, I know. And they built not only one bullet like that, they had to build a whole bunch of them because they tested them. Do you realize what that cost, probably cost? I mean they had jewelers, I'm sure. They had every kind of machinist you can imagine and tool and die people working at Frankfurt. But they built rounds like that up and down the scale. Anything you could conceive of. Our armor piercing incendiary tracer, frangible. So it was like a, again, for aircraft to aircraft or it could be used for air defense. Now, frangible is not frangible as in the material you see, which you have a frangible bullet for the .30 caliber and it was made for most of the other rounds at one time or another, made out of Bakelite type material, Crapite Bakelite. That's not what we're talking about. When we say frangible, in this case, we're talking about trying to create sheared fragmentation with the jacket so that it tears at the aluminum. You're trying to fire on an aircraft or maybe a missile or whatever it is if you're in a plane firing from a tail gun position. They built these bullets also in .50 caliber. They did in .30 caliber, they did in .50 caliber, and they did them in .60 caliber. Because at the end of World War II and after World War II, we had a .60 caliber gun in service. You ever see it? You ever think about that one? When somebody goes, oh, he didn't know what he was talking about. He said he was shooting a .60 caliber gun. They had a 60-caliber gun that was supposed to replace the M2. It didn't. You'll notice we still have a 50-caliber gun, but we don't have a 60-caliber gun, right? But they built so much of the crap at the end of World War II that the gun stuck around until 1955, and then they dumped it. See anything in the books? Or, I mean, talk about it. See anything in movies? No. It's always those minimalized, pap, narrow gauge, historical representations, and that's it. Okay, and yet Frankfurt Arsenal, here's what's cool, the books that the guys are getting tonight, that Frankfurt Arsenal set, Frankfurt is where the 60 caliber cartridge was developed and all the information on that projectile, or the projectiles in the loaded case are in that book. Every variation made from training round to ball round to AP round to incendiary rounds to etc etc etc and all of it well documented as the 60 caliber machine gun round just like 50 BMG So anyway ideas not just complaining about the problems. There's all kinds of things we can do now on this note with the 6.8 project and like I said have some fun when the program's over go look up this 6.8 by 51 go look at the bullet spec and Then slide over to one of the bullet manufacturers, their selling page, and go through all their specs and go right down through the scale and find where that is. And then notice what it's listed as. Cartridge politics in government is a real bizarre thing. It's why some things aren't what they say they are. When you see the title given for a cartridge, it isn't what they say it is. It's weird, but it's been going on for a very long time. It has always been there with us. Anyway, other things, we got enough time. I'll tell you what, even though it's late, Edward, if you could, the traditional weapons Wednesday bottom of the hour break, we can fit it in now. We still have enough time. So for everybody out there, again, it is weapons Wednesday. We can't pass this up. We got to get it in here for a reason. Okay, I'm still here. I'm still connected. Thank God. Everything's working. What's supposed to even though it's against Michigan hot here right now? Also, uh, let's see, magazines, as I mentioned Glock magazines. Over, oh, here's the noise. Do we have a caller? I don't want to do that. Yeah, jump in there, please. I have this, John. I've looked for those Frankfurt Arsenal books several times and never came close to even finding anything like them. Do you want to know how many books? It's going to have to be a collector, and I had, I had... Okay, let me give you the, you know how I know these books exist? I printed them. Oh. I worked for the company that printed the books. Well, you were a school. Yes, and somebody said, what do you want those? I grabbed, okay, when they print books, the initial production run on this set of books was 500. And then they of course did a reprint, I believe the second reprint was much higher. Well when they print books they only do a 10% overage for the customer. And every copy that they had that was a glitch, I grabbed. And I spread them out immediately. In fact, I had almost all of the 10% overage because the author didn't take it. Normally when you do 10% over at a printer, you let the customer know and they'll go, okay, I'll take those two. But for whatever reason you also have blems and so the the set I just load out are a blend set. What's wrong with them? Well, you guys would never recognize it, but when they do hard case covers, these are not softmouth. These are large format books. Nothing but printout after printout after printout. Now after he did book three, guess what happened? Uncle Samuel came to him. And I met the author, I met the author because he was checking the quality of the product when the book was being run. And he said, you know what, this will be the last one. Really, why? Well, the government, now here's the thing, all this information came from the National Archives, it is not copyrighted, but they didn't want all you peasants to see what the government was doing with your money and how many creative things are out there you would never have probably thought of. Yeah. If you find the books, they will be a kind of a tan cover. It's a similar color to a legal binding, like a law book. You know, I have that tan, like, it's a, not a kyvar. It's a it do it is it's an industrial kyvar heavy gauge 10 weight Material that's a library stock that's designed when they see when you hear the term library stock what that means is That it will take an incredible amount of wear and tear because the cover material is three times the thickness of what normal Hardbound books are covered in if it's if it's moderns material if it's leather it's varying in fat thickness from cowhide to you know goatskin But these were beautiful books. I mean it was it's it's everything you need to understand how to build it Because the specs for the router there the schematics for the internals on the bullet is there if it was a unique projectile all of the Particular specs that were laid down by the R&D grouper in the book for each item So it's just a how-to set the thing is if you look you might I don't know if you're gun anybody who's into gun collecting Obviously, this is one of those things that if they do cartridge collecting, it's especially critical because there are guys that have phenomenal cartridge collections that try to cover everything and you want to be able to identify it. These books help to do that if it's military because even though Frankfurt did the design, needless to say, that was the standard for St. Louis, Lake City, take your picture, right down the shopping list. and everybody ran off of Frankfurt's specifications. So it's Frankfurt, it literally is just the Frankfurt Arsenal books. Frankfurt Arsenal. And if you can find it, I'll tell you what, let me see what I can do. I actually should look around myself, because I'm here in Michigan, and the first place where any of them would still be orbiting is around here. There are a couple of major bookstores too though, old used bookstores where I'd look too. These books were printed in the 80s. There are a hundred of them. Chances are you're not going to come across them in Maine. Right. Well, the thing is that they did do other printings. Once everybody realized he had it, it was the book to have in the 80s. I mean, for anybody who was at the gun shows, if they saw it, it was like, oh my god, you've got those? It's like, oh my god, yes I do. You know. Well, that's the other thing. In fact, where they're going right now, the BLEM set, the page, there's nothing wrong with the internals. Sometimes with a BLEM, when they did the cut on the book, before you do the spine, sometimes a section will be offset a little bit so it sits shallower. Now with some people who are customers, they don't care about that. In fact, it used to be, if you look at old books, I just got a book from 18 27, a couple of them. In fact, somebody is ready to check them out. One is a history book on Wisconsin, the other one, and it's a very detailed one for the size of the book. and the other one is a fiction. What's interesting is they're in the old style random cut. They basically just folded everything properly and each section was done which you know a 32, 16, 8 page, 4 page section. They either, you know it could be each size because you made up the sizes to match the pages, number of pages for the overall book. And they're course cut. They didn't care, but in modern books, if you go to the library, everybody wants this nice clean line all the way around. Well, if there's a little glitch in that lineup with the sections, then that book is shut. You know, it gets put off to the side. Now, we'll offer them to the customer sometimes. Say, hey, we got some blims if you want those. And they usually, well, most of the time they do take them. If it's a custom order like that, another book that I printed, I helped with the printing of, and I was at the key point, I was a cloth and board cutter. The guy that was the next man in line, who was the striker, printer, the Winchester books. The Winchester book, it is the icon book, the authoritative book on Winchester. And that was printed at the place, the printer that I worked at. And that was probably the most expensive case, most people realize it, it was the most expensive case made for a book in its day in the industry. But there were many of those made. However, the author did come in, if you got assigned a copy, I watched the author do it because he came right into the end of the line, sat there in a chair, and he signed every last stinking book by hand. Trust me on that one. And he did thousands of those books. So that's another one, the Winchester book. And it is, again, it is the authoritative text on Winchester. It was fun to build because you get to read it all. I got to see it for anybody did. Except the guy who's proofreading. But I will do what I can. Let me see what I can track down because I'm looking for more copies than any bookstores here. Far from where I'm sitting. Not the slide bookstores, but a real bookstore. Okay? Where's the knob, guys? Everybody got blood?
